Sounds like a bug.
Version of pom.xml is parametrized in 2.0 branch:

    <artifactId>postgis-jdbc</artifactId>
    <version>${POSTGIS_MAJOR_VERSION}.${POSTGIS_MINOR_VERSION}.${POSTGIS_MICRO_VERSION}</version>

But is hard-coded in 2.1 branch:

    <artifactId>postgis-jdbc</artifactId>
    <version>2.1.4dev</version>

And in master:

    <artifactId>postgis-jdbc</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.0dev</version>

The build.xml file still uses parameters:

  <property file="${versioninfo}"/>
  <property name="postgis_version" value="${POSTGIS_MAJOR_VERSION}.${POSTGIS_MINOR_VERSION}.${POSTGIS_MICRO_VERSION}"/>

It looks like switching to hard-coded was intentional, here:

You may want to add yourself in Cc there, and ping the java guys
