To finish what I was saying, generally we try to make sure that the
default configuration (what you get when your driver is auto-detected)
is optimized for the latest db version.

Historically, we've put various compatibility properties into the
particular dictionary class. Any public fields or setter / getter
pairs can be accessed from the DBDictionary configuration:
openjpa.DBDictionary: postgres(supportsSubqueries=false)
for example. We haven't usually done version numbers, since desired
settings are really normally more of a version range, not a particular
number. But, I could definitely see a case for something like so:
openjpa.DBDictionary: postgres(version=8.0)
Then, in the DBDictionary, various behaviors could be toggled based on
the fact that the person is using a version < 8.1, for example.
