I think you should be able to solve it this way:

1) For PostgreSQL/PostGIS do not set GDAL_DATA as environment variable
but as postgresql.gdal_datapath option
Read here http://postgis.net/docs/manual-dev/postgis_gdal_datapath.html

2) Set GDAL_DATA env var for GDAL 2.0.1 apps

If postgresql.gdal_datapath is defined, PostGIS should prefer it.
without trying GDAL_DATA env variable.
