[postgis-devel] GEOS version requirement

[strk]

Hello guys,
I just tried a trunk build against whatever I had around.
This happened to be GEOS 3.1.0 first, which postgis ./configure complained
about and GEOS 3.0.0rc1 second, which postgis ./configure
didn't complain about, but failed at 'make' time.

Problem is with GEOS_NUMERIC_VERSION: 3001 due to GEOS_PATCH_VERSION
(like also MINOR and MAJOR) being computed by stripping all non-numbers
from the part of the version (0rc1 for my patch).
Well, bottom line is 3001 > 311 so it's considered fine.

Might be sensible to just discard RC at all for things to work.
