Seems I did forget. I always update the minor for a major release, but
when development starts, and I seem to have forgotten for 7.3. Sorry.

I will update for 7.4 now. Too late for 7.3 clearly.

Turns out I usually do it when I stamp the new development tree, but
someone else stamped 7.3 and 7.4. :-(

Here is 7.2 stamp, which shows the updates:

revision 1.52
date: 2001/05/11 01:46:33; author: momjian; state: Exp; lines: +2 -2
Stamp CVS as 7.2. Update all interface version numbers. This is the
time to do it, not during beta because people are using this stuff in
production sometimes.

The diff shows:

***************
*** 15,21 ****
# shared library parameters
NAME= pq
SO_MAJOR_VERSION= 2
! SO_MINOR_VERSION= 1

override CPPFLAGS := -I$(srcdir) $(CPPFLAGS) -DFRONTEND
-DSYSCONFDIR='"$(sysco
nfdir)"'

--- 15,21 ----
# shared library parameters
NAME= pq
SO_MAJOR_VERSION= 2
! SO_MINOR_VERSION= 2

so clearly 7.2 and 7.3 have the same minor version for all interfaces. Bad!
