Sorry I've been out of touch as of late ... been away on vacation for 
the last week.  fun fun!

Mark, yes there is.
Put a
<!ENTITY last_release_version "@@LAST_RELEASE_VERSION@@">
with the other system references in postgis.xml.  Then reference your 
variable using &last_release_version;

Try the attached patch.
Cheers,
Kevin
