Hm, not generally... sometimes, at worst, packages get rebuilt with new 
timestamps for the same version nr.  I'll have to dig to see what 
changed in xfsprogs w/o a VERSION change, and flog the perpetrator.  ;-)

Ok after a little digging it doesn't look like much; someone got this 
version of xfstests running on irix, tweaked aclocal.m4 for BSD, and 
synced up one of the header files with the kernel.

let the floggings commence!
