TBH, anything that presupposes a backported change in the backend is
broken by definition.  We expect libpq to be able to connect to older
servers, and that has to include servers that didn't get this memo.

It would be all right for libpq to make a second connection attempt
if its first one fails, as we did in the 2.0 -> 3.0 change.
