Here is a patch that tries to implement this. Meta-commands should
work from 7.4 to 8.4-devel releases. It was not hard to do, and I
don't think it really is a burden to maintain.
One part left to fix is \du and \dg commands. I would be glad to
continue to work on this but I would prefer to have comments before.
Good work! I submitted a similar patch also.
For your patch I have one critique: the version sensitive code is
scattered all through describe.c. Are there opportunities to apply some
tests at a higher level (reducing the number of tests), or gather the
tests into an easily maintainable chunk?
The cleaner it is, the more likely future patchers will continue to
maintain compatibility.
