Last time when I checked with upstream, this shouldn't actually happen.
We observed a few small problems from what I remember, but those were
immediately fixed by follow-up patch upstream (to fix compatibility).

Also, Debian used to _run_ ¹ all the PostgreSQL server variants against
one, the most up2date major version of libpq library (even though all
libpq variants are provided at the same time).

¹ The approach in Fedora modules was better, because we also built the
  package against the system-wide library, so we actually unit-tested the
  server+lib pair.
