Oh, I've misstated, apparently. I'll continue on the 'bleeding edge' as far
as versions of PostgreSQL are concerned -- I'm just shifting focus to
providing prebuilt binaries on older dists. As I do some other bleeding edge
work, I typically will make sure my source RPM's build on the latest and
greatest -- they just won't be optimized for it.
