No, but it does now report that it can handle unlimited query & row length
(although in reality as MAX_MESSAGE_LEN=65536 it's not really unlimited -
some work needed to fix that), as well as outer joins which are features
that are only in 7.1 of course. It certainly still works with 7.0.3 as long
as you don't send too long a query or an oj query - which the backend will
complain about anyway.

My other reasoning for this change was that the current source had a version
number of 6.40.0009 whilst Byron's last compiled version seemed to be
6.50.0000 - there seems to have been much confusion about this on the list
(as well as the 'Will this 6.40 driver work with 7.0' faq). It also makes me
wonder if the CVS is missing Byron's last changes as well as the correct
version number...
