Of course, as is it's not acceptable; the version number should be
obtained from PG_VERSION or some such.
I am not sure the "libpq5" versioning is best; maybe we don't change the
API but we could certainly change error messages between versions. I
think we should keep it as libpq-8.3, like the rest.
