sorry, yes. the client-side interfaces (DatabaseMetaData.getDriver*)
are actually fine - they return a major/minor version that have been
getting manually updated (they're much more visible, being in
org/postgresql/Driver.java). the server-side interfaces
(DatabaseMetaData.getDatabase{Name,Version}) are the ones that aren't
tied to the server, return hardcoded strings and haven't been getting
updated regularly.
