The PACKAGE_* variables are usually set by autoconf in configure.{in|ac} script

http://www.gnu.org/software/hello/manual/autoconf/Initializing-configure.html

The RT_VERSION is WKT Raster custom variable set in configure.ac

http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/browser/spike/wktraster/configure.ac?rev=5232#L625

As I see, PostGIS does not call AC_INIT with values for the PACKAGE_* variables

http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/browser/trunk/configure.ac#L13

I'm not sure what's the policy there.

AFAIK, they are not mandatory.

Best regards,
