I do pretty much the same thing in PL/R. The good news is that
CATALOG_VERSION_NO doesn't change for each major release once it is
released. The following hasn't been updated since the 8.1 release, but
you could use it as a starting point:
#if (CATALOG_VERSION_NO <= 200211021)
#define PG_VERSION_73_COMPAT
#elif (CATALOG_VERSION_NO <= 200310211)
#define PG_VERSION_74_COMPAT
#elif (CATALOG_VERSION_NO <= 200411041)
#define PG_VERSION_80_COMPAT
#else
#define PG_VERSION_81_COMPAT
#endif
