Are those exposed through the libpq interface?
If not, is there a way to use the libpq interface for most operations,
and only for the rest to use whatever it is you are suggesting I use
(couldn't locate it in the docs, yet)
Funnily enough, mandating protocol version 3 is not my problem at the
moment. I may have to do so for a host of other reasons as well. I
guess, if you want to use an earlier version of the database, you will
have to make do with the ole db to ODBC interface.
