 From:
 {{{
  POSTGIS="2.1.0SVN r10603"
  (core procs from "2.1.0SVN r10237" need upgrade) TOPOLOGY (topology procs
 from "2.1.0SVN r10237" need upgrade) RASTER (raster procs from "2.1.0SVN

 }}}

 You can not soft-upgrade to 2.1.0SVNnext:
 {{{
 pg21=# ALTER EXTENSION postgis UPDATE TO "2.1.0SVNnext";
 ERROR:  cannot change name of input parameter "band"
 }}}

 Sounds like a missing DROP of the function whose input parameter name was
 changed.

 Please think more before changing a parameter name.
 I know it is nice to have semantically correct param names, but it's a big
 obstacle to CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION.
