Kind people,
I've been digging through the CVS code and trying to figure out the
best approach to making one psql that does the right thing for
different versions of the back-end. This has come up in a real
situation already, where the dev box is 7.3.3 and the production box
is (Yikes!) 7.2.1.
I'm wondering if maybe the Right Thing(TM) might be for all
connections to return (optionally?) the version number, but that seems
like a giant project with many backward-compatibility snags attached.
I think it would be for psql to check the connection version and then load a
shared library
