Comment(by strk):

 With r8467 the postgis_restore.pl also takes care of fixing SRID in
 topology.topology, taking it from geometry_columns, which is supposedly
 the most correct as it looks at actual typmod or constraints.

 Question: if we do drop the constraints for SRID=0, what would
 geometry_columns contain for such typmod-less tables with no SRID
 constraint ? Also, is there a pointer to a mailing list discussion about
 this ? I'd like to know more about the rationale for NOT enforcing the
 unknown srid...
