What exactly do you mean by centralize the version info?  Do you mean having
the ODBC driver version match the Postgres DB version?

If so, I do agree in doing that... to a degree.  I say we only match major
versions where there are added features.  As an example, 7.0 has many
feature additions over 6.5.  Once the driver supports all the functionality
of 7.0, it should be moved to version 7.0.  Then, if a patch or something is
added to the ODBC to require it being upped a version, we should use very
minor increments, something like a precision of 4 or 5.  (A patched 7.0
driver would be incremented to 7.0.0.0.1) That way, we know a driver version
as 7.0 supports all functionality from 7.0 servers and back.
