Yes, it does (IMHO anyway) because it removes a configuration option
that is confusing new users.  The odds that someone will want to use 7.1
ODBC with a pre-6.4 server seem very small to me, while we do frequently
see questions about the 6.2/6.3/6.4 protocol switch.

That's certainly true.  I hope that someone will start taking
responsibility for this code again.
