We cannot push 2.1 to 9.2 without changing the name of the packaging. If
we just update to 2.1 on 9.2, then 2.0 users will be unhappy. Instead,
we can bite the bullet and create something like
postgis_20_92 (for 2.0)
postgis_21_92 (for 2.1)
so that they can be installed in parallel. Jeff/Craig, comments?
