psql has supported older servers for a great while now, so this sort of
things seems pretty useless now:
psql (9.2rc1, server 9.1.4)
WARNING: psql version 9.2, server version 9.1.
Some psql features might not work
I think it should be reduced to warning when connected to a newer
server.

Seems like a good idea to me. +1. (Obviously keeping the first line
that shows that the version numbers are different, but not WARNING)
