If you're hoping to wait till nobody's copy of Postgres mentions the
@postgresql.org addresses, you're going to be waiting a long time.
I don't see a reason to suppose that pre-9.4 copies are going to
disappear from circulation anytime soon. Heck, they haven't even
disappeared from our website, e.g.
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/bug-reporting.html
So I doubt that back-patching this particular commit would move the
goalposts very much in terms of when we think we can desupport the
@postgresql.org addresses.
