Comment(by strk):

 How it should work:

  1. Always try to get SVN revision (svn exists, you have an .svn)
  2. Compare the SVN revision got with what's in the existing
 postgis_svn_version.h
  3. At "make" time, only update postgis_svn_version.h if you detected
 something _and_ what you detected is different from what
 postgis_svn_version.h knows about
  4. Always distribute postgis_svn_version.h

 Supposedly any case in which (1) would fail would have a
 postgis_svn_version.h in it.
