Would it be possible to report the integer_datetimes GUC in the V3 
startup packet?

Currently if you want to use binary-format parameters or results that 
might involve dates/times, you have to explicitly check 
integer_datetimes first; this means another roundtrip on startup for 
generic client drivers such as JDBC (they don't know if they will 
encounter timestamps in results until it's too late, otherwise).
