I'm not sure this is to do with upgrading the PostgreSQL server. This
should be due to upgrading the PostgreSQL client libraries. I take it
you did both?

I'm not sure why you would *have* to rebuild. It might make sense to
keep server and client at the same version.

Imagine you had the client application running on a different machine
from the server. Would the server know or care whether you were running
a 32-bit or 64-bit client library? Would it even know or care if you
were running Intel or PPC?
