Really? The latest version of libpq SO version 5 that we ship is 9.2.9?
I certainly don't feel that way.

Next you'll be asking us to bump the major SO for every major release of
PG.

Note that the last time we changed the SO major version was back in 2006
and that was primairly because we were removing symbols that people
weren't supposed to be using anyway. Prior to that, it was 2005, or the
8.0/8.1 timeframe...
