I'd run 7.4.x (latest version) if it was up to me. 7.3.x is the oldest
version I'd consider putting into production on a new product, and only
if there was some issue running some tool I had against 7.4.
jdbc works pretty well in 7.4, as does postgis. all versions going
pretty far back support large objects, but I'm not a fan of large
objects, preferring to store binary things in the file system.
