Would someone please apply this patch to the website code so pglife
(http://pglife.momjian.us/) can more easily scrape the current release
numbers from the website?   Thanks.

Uh, if you are looking to get the current release, why are you scraping the main webpage instead of using the structured format data already available at https://www.postgresql.org/versions.rss?

(Now granted, I think that link may have gone missing in the redesign, but your pglife thing predates that..) 

Now, having staid that, we should probably consider having a structured format with more data in it. But doesn't that one actually have all you need?
