Depending in what "the new versions" is, Rdb 7.3 was/is already on the
"last version" list for Itanium. So this should change anything in the
short run for Rdb with regard to the release of 7.3.

And the message from Oracle (before todays news) was that they
planned to continue development while staying on 7.3.x.x. numbers.
