Comment(by robe):

 No don't think so but it should work for micro and minor. I ran into
 issues when upgrading my older PostGIS 2.0 when I revised the guts of the
 internals.  In minor releases we are allowed to change the public
 interface e.g. adding new columns etc.

 In micro we are allowed to change the guts of a view as long as we don't
 change the exposed interface - e.g we can change how a column is computed
 as long as the output column has same name,type, size.
