Comment(by robe):

 It's stored as a number in the pg_attribute.atttypmod column for each
 table column.

 so if a geometry column was created with the form ADD COLUMN
 geometry(POINT,4326)
 you'll see a number in that column corresponding to that.  If it was
 created without typmod, that record would have -1 in the column.

 The new geometry_columns view checks both typmod and constraints
 and uses the helper functions postgis_typmod_* and postgis_constraint_* to
 parse out the relevant srid, dim and type information from the typmod
 number or table constraints.
