Here is a thought. We could tackle the problem at its source and track in internalPQconninfoOption the minimum version supported by a parameter. This way, we could make sure that libpq routines similar to PQconninfo() never return an option which is not compatible with a a live connection, and we won't forget that if the problem shows up again because creating a new parameter would require to add a new version number. There is an advantage here: internalPQconninfoOption is an internal structure, so this should be back-patchable. -- Michael
