Oops, the server that I thought was 8.3 was recently upgraded to 8.4.

I'm going to generate the ordinals on the client then. The nature of the
query is that it can request columns information for all or several tables
as well. The ordinals generation algorithm can reset counter to 1 each time
the table name changes.

Thank you tons!
