Hi Tom,
Ok, I think I miss-understood the docs. I have the macro in the extension anyway, so basically the cause it that somewhere I'm picking up non 9.5.3 libs when I'm compiling? I upgraded from 9.4.5 not too long ago but I can't find any traces of it left on my system to be interfering.

Hm, where are you reading that? I forget when the requirement was added,
but it's certainly never been dropped.
