Seriously? First, not sure why this would put the whole release cycle
back by 'several weeks'. Second, this is removing functionality, so what
are apps supposed to do - have a three-choice case in the code to handle
pg_am for < 9.6, do some ugly parsing for 9.6, and use the new functions
when 10.0 comes out?! This issue was raised on July 25th, and the OP has
gone out of his way to present the case and provide patches. It's hardly
fair to discard it now.
