Ugh. I was afraid the answer would be just that dirty :-(
Would someone volunteer to do the legwork on teaching the postgres perl5
module about this? I had a TODO item to look into it myself, but it
could be a long time before it gets to the top of my queue.
Probably we ought to modify the Pg.pm file to use the new names, and
then conditionally include macro definitions to substitute the old
names, rather than the other way around as your example has it.
Forward thinking and all that.
