Summary: pyPGSQL does not connect to PostgreSQL 8.0 Beta

Initial Comment:
While trying to connect to Postgresql 8.0, PyPGSQL raises

Invalid format for PgVersion construction.


Error. That's seems to be within 

PyObject *PgVersion_New(char *version)

of pgversion.c


What is going wrong?

PgVersion_New() calls parseToken(), which doesn't allow for
the string "beta" in the last token of "8.0.0beta1". 
parseToken() checks for "devel" and a few other cases, but
not for "beta".  I got it to work by adding the following
lines after the check for "devel":

if (strncmp(last, "beta", 4) == 0)
    return (errno != 0);
