We've also wrapped the psql command with our own script which takes a

you try to connect to a 8.1 using a 7.4 client.

 

Care to share that script or at least show us how it works?  This sounds like a great way to gradually upgrade applications to new database versions, especially when you have many clients on a machine and upgrade only some of them at a time.

Thanks!
