Sorry to bore everyone with this when everyone is working on really important things.
It just occurred to me the comments generated by the xsltproc work fine in postgis 1.3.4.  Would anyone have an issue
with me just committing it to 1.3.4 as a .sql file similar to spatial_ref_sys.sql and people can run it if they feel like it?

As far as including in lwpostgis.sql.in.c in trunk, I haven't really explored that.  The comments part makes sense, but I'm not convinced including the spatial_ref_sys.sql in the include is the right thing to do since many people fiddle with that table a lot, e.g. add new entries etc. I'm not sure the ramifications when you do a full dump and upgrade to a major version.

Thanks,
Regina
