Huh? The variable will be set in any case. It should be correct for any
server version we might find in the wild --- so far as I can tell from the
commit history, every version supporting FE/BE protocol version 3 has sent
server_version at connection start. With a pre-7.4 server, it looks like
the variables would be set to "0.0.0" and "0" respectively.
