When dblink uses a postgres_fdw server name for its connection, it is possible for the connection to have options that are invalid with dblink (e.g. "updatable"). The recommended way to avoid this problem is to use dblink_fdw servers instead. However there are use cases for using postgres_fdw, and possibly other FDWs, for dblink connection options, therefore protect against trying to use any options that do not apply by using is_valid_dblink_option() when building the connection string from the options. Back-patch to 9.3. Although 9.2 supports FDWs for connection info, is_valid_dblink_option() did not yet exist, and neither did postgres_fdw, at least in the postgres source tree. Given the lack of previous complaints, fixing that seems too invasive/not worth it.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
