OK, so what do people want me to do on this? Apply my pg_upgrade fix or
go for a more general fix that will prevent pg_dump from dumping out
these duplicate functions --- it would involve checking for public
schema functions who's names and probin match pg_pltemplate entries.
Either will fix pg_upgrade.
