OK, no problem.

SERVER_VERSION_NUM is a great new feature. I think these points need
further changes

* An example of the intended use of SERVER_VERSION_NUM in psql
* Clarification that this will work for current AND past server versions
* Clarification to avoid confusion between VERSION and SERVER_VERSION

Thanks
