There is a preference that says to preserve stack file format, but i'm not sure if it applies when a stack is saving itself. (seems like it should, but hey, you never know). The best way to avoid this is to set the stackfileversion to what you want, right before the save. Theres an example of this in the dictionary entry. Basically, it saves the current stackfileversion to a variable, sets the stackfileversion to the version you wish to save as, saves the stack, then resets the stackfileversion.
