Comment(by robe):

 I looked into this problem more.  I can salvage your dropping of


 {{{
 DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS geometry_gist_sel_2d (internal, oid, internal,
 int4);
 DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS geometry_gist_joinsel_2d(internal, oid, internal,
 smallint);
 }}}

 simply by putting in do logic to rename the original and then updating
 with the new C function.  Unfortunately with your geography ones and 3D
 &&&, I can't do that since both share the same set of functions so I can
 only rename one.

 So which would you rather have:

 different names pointing to same C functions

 or

 partial duplicates (e.g. salvage geometry2d and live with
 geography/geometry 3d having slightly different named casts in 2 ugrade

 or
 back to duplicate naming for everything.
