Hmm ... our model for the in-core extensions has always been that you don't need a new upgrade script unless the SQL declarations change. Admittedly, that means that the script version number isn't a real helpful guide to which version of the .so you're dealing with. We expect the .so's own minor version number to suffice for that, but I realize that that might not be the most user-friendly answer. regards, tom lane
