I started to do that, but paused when the patch failed on v12, which I soon realized is because our minimum requirement before v13 was Python 2.4 not 2.6. That means we're moving the goalposts a bit further in the old branches than this discussion was presuming. I don't think this changes the conclusion any: there's still little chance that anyone wants to build PG against such old Python versions in 2022. So I'm going to go ahead with patching; but does anyone want to change their vote? (We can always "git revert".) regards, tom lane
