Well, I disagree with what you are doing here, adding a hardcoded
dependency between the test code and the backend code. I would
suggest to use a more dynamic approach and retrieve such values
directly from the headers. See scan_server_header() in
039_end_of_wal.pl as one example. 7b5275eec3a5 is newer than
bae868caf222, so the original commit could have used that, as well.
