Comment:

 We tried to setup an environment using PostgreSQL 7.4.30 (the oldest one
 available for download)[1] to answer your question. Unfortunately when we
 run manage.py syncdb we received an error message stating that:

 "django.db.utils.DatabaseError: function pg_get_serial_sequence("unknown",
 "unknown") does not exist"

 Further research in the django-users mailing list revealed that version
 7.4 of PostgreSQL does not contain the function pg_get_serial_sequence.[2]
 A reply from django core developer Russell Keith-Magee says that in Django
 version 1.3 support for PostgreSQL 7.4 was abandoned.[3]
