The extensions are not part of the 6.5 tree, but they can be applied to
a 6.5 database. They are simply functions defined in ODBC which are
synonyms for existing SQL9x or PostgreSQL functions. That is why they
can be defined with just "create function" statements and no compiled
code.
I doubt that they would contribute to a connectivity or operability
problem.
