Changes (by robe):

  * milestone:  PostGIS 1.5.2 => PostGIS 1.5.3


Comment:

 I checked and this is still a problem.  Worsed yet if I do an adhoc query

 pgsql2shp -h prodserv -p 5434 -u robe gisdb  "SELECT * FROM vwdndprojects
 WHERE the_point IS NOT NULL" -f dndprojects -g the_point

 I get the esri shape file named with the random temp table name created

 e.g.
 __pgsql2shp4524_tmp_table.dbf

 I'm going to push this to 1.5.3 though.  I don't feel its enough to hold
 up a release since it was broken in 1.5.1 as well.  Like Devrim, I feel
 getting 1.5.2 out in time for PostgreSQL 9.0 inclusion is more important
 than fixing issues that were present in the last minor version.   We can
 always make another release of 1.5.3 sooner than later.
