I've used the poor man's version control in the past.  Make a table:

create table version_control(id numeric primary key, description text,
applied timestamp default now());

And then in every bit of DDL you submit to the DB, you put a single
line at the top to insert the proper values to identify it.  Then you
can just compare the various dbs' version_control tables to see what's
missing etc.  Assuming you don't let tom, dick, harry and all their
friends run ddl on the prod / staging / qa databases and pay attention
to what you're doing it should work well.
