Comment:

 Sorry for making a big deal out of this.  Apparently I misunderstood how
 this upgrade message is actually generated.  Reading strk email, I
 understand now the solution that will hopefully satisfy everybody.

 In the configure.ac  we have this line

 POSTGIS_SCRIPTS_VERSION="$POSTGIS_LIB_VERSION"

 That is really the cause of my frustration as it always made the
 postgis_full_version() read that one needs an upgrade of scripts even when
 scripts did not change from micro to micro.  Its not an issue when you
 have only one spatial database, but when managing many its a bit annoying.

 So I propose -- go back to the pre 1.1 days when we have a different
 SCRIPTS VERSION from POSTGIS LIB VERSION.  I've changed the title of this
 accordingly.
