Well, either way it will be different from 08.01 because there is only
one driver in the 7.3E branch, so there is no ANSI/Unicode distinction.

As for the name, yes, there was a psqlodbcplus, but I thought they never
actually released anything. On double checking that's not the case so
that isn't such a good name as you say.

We could just return to plain old psqlodbc/PostgreSQL ?
