That's weird, the plan has always been to use alien technology starting 
with Trac 2.0, not earlier...

In order to find the "true" version, you should issue this SQL command 
on the Trac db:

  select value from system where name='database_version'

This will give you the db schema version that we use for the upgrades.
You can then have a look in 
http://trac.edgewall.org/browser/trunk/trac/upgrades in order to find 
out when that file was created (look in the tags/trac-0.X/trac/upgrades 
to confirm the version). It's a bit tedious but AFAICT no one wrote a db 
version vs. Trac version table so far.

Once you know the version, look at:
 - http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracUpgrade
 - http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/0.10/TracUpgrade

(the second only if you need to upgrade first from a version older than 
0.10)
