Sounds OK. This was desirable for the 7.0 release (to allow a pre-7.0
backend to work with newer clients via ODBC), but the backward
compatibility issue should be less now that folks have had time to do a
transition.

Or should we think about how to make a full-up "package", which can be
installed, uninstalled, etc etc. A problem with burying it down into the
main odbc area is that it may be unclear that it is an optional addition
to the ODBC capabilities that needs to be installed into template1 or
into a specific database.
