Last year I checked versions installable in Debian:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20150829213631.GI2912@alvherre.pgsql
From that I would say that the maximum minimum is 2.8.2.  Not sure if
there's any platform where 2.8.0 (released in 2009) or older would be
necessary.

For the record, IIRC the oldest Perl we support is something like 5.8.3
(released in 2004, bugfix release after 5.8.0 released in 2002)
