[postgis-users] parser error at or near "."

[Tyler Mitchell]

As strk notes, the versions of psql and the postgresql database are
important to match up.
I hit that this lack of backward compatibility before - it's irritating to
say the least, but at least  it isn't a postgis problem. :)

You should use psql version 7.2.x to connect to PostgreSQL 7.2.x.
The "." could be a schema specification (introduced in 7.3).
