Comment:

 The problem is not with the postgis_extension_drop_if_exists function but
 with ALTER EXTENSION itself !
 {{{
 strk=# alter extension postgis DROP FUNCTION
 pgis_twkb_accum_finalfn(internal);
 ALTER EXTENSION
 strk=# DROP FUNCTION pgis_twkb_accum_finalfn(internal);
 ERROR:  cannot drop function pgis_twkb_accum_finalfn(internal) because
 other objects depend on it
 DETAIL:  extension postgis depends on function
 pgis_twkb_accum_finalfn(internal)
 strk=# select version();
                                                version
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  PostgreSQL 9.3.6 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Ubuntu
 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) 4.8.2, 64-bit
 (1 row)
 }}}

 David maybe this is one of those things that would help if done upstream
 ...
