So, as I see it there are two ways of doing it - install a
catversion.h file and include it from libpq-fe.h, or modify the
libpq-fe.h. I still think modifying libpq-fe.h is the better of these
choices - but either of them would work. But is the catversion value
really the best interface for the user? This is about libpq
functionality level, which really has nothing to do with the backend
catalog, does it?
