Hi,

I have many customers using PG 15.3 happily, and I cannot just snap upgrade them all to 15.12.

I have tested a nasty trick of replacing PSQL,LIBPQ and several other DLL's so that I have a PG client 15.12 within the folders of Server 15.3.

All working just fine.

I plan to ship it as a patch - but would like to hear you opinion on this "merge".

(Of course, the next version will use PG 17.4, so this is just an SOS action).

Thanks
