Postgres is backwards compatible. Meaning older client libs can access newer 
servers and vice versa. You might miss a few features that only work between 
newest server and newest client (it is likely that you wouldn't want to use a 
wrapper like QtSql if you needed any of those).

If you insist on using the newest client lib - just recompile Qt.
