Good chance of it, but honestly, running such an old and now
unsupported version of pgsql is just asking for trouble. I bet
they're not even on the latest 7.4 version, or close, right?

Getting them onto a newer, supported version should become a priority,
because if you guys show up on the lists with some horrible data loss
problem or bug, and your version is 7.4, you're gonna have a hard time
finding someone who can remember enough about that version to help.
