Letting them be present but throw error is likely to be far less
painful than the other way, because then you don't need a separate
set of SQL-visible object definitions.  You could, in fact, imagine
jacking up an existing database and driving a set of locked-down
binaries under it --- or vice versa.  If there have to be different
versions of the extension SQL files for the two cases then everything
gets way hairier, both for developers and users.
