Hackers,
Seems the functionality to detect old versions of the postmaster with
newer psql doesn't work. Here, server is 7.2.1:
$ psql alvherre
ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "."
Welcome to psql 7.3b1, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
Type: \copyright for distribution terms \h for help with SQL commands \? for help on internal slash commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query \q to quit
alvherre=> select version(); version
-------------------------------------------------------------PostgreSQL 7.2.1 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC
2.96
(1 row)
alvherre=>
