(pkgsrc has 3.13.0 so I don't pay attention to older branches.)

It looks like this has API breaks and is thus technically not a micro
release.  Or, is it that:

  - I'm confused (quite possible)?

  - the headers are part of the C++ API which is defined not to be
    stable, and not part of the C API, and therefore this is not an API
    break to the part of the API that is documented as usable?  (or
    something like that, that I am not understanding)

  - the headers should not be installed because they aren't actually a
    public API?

  - we believe that no depending programs use these and therefore there
    won't be trouble?

  - we don't expect changes on stable branches to be micro releases, and
    therefore they are not suitable for updates within packaging
    systems?

I wonder about Debian, in terms of being willing to apply this update.

Specifically, 4 include files in include/geos/operation/overlay are no
longer present.
