I was mainly just curious as to why it was still at  8.4.8 after I 
upgraded libpq to the latest version.  Was the php5-pgsql module 
compiled with a static libpq?  I also read somewhere that it is best to 
have your libpq at the same version or higher than your database.  
Perhaps this is not true?
