Personally, I wouldn't bother with that.  Good practice would be to have
any such type packaged as an extension; so if you add the new functions
to the extension (which is supported) there's no need to be terribly
tense about the intra-extension dependencies.  But even if you didn't
do that, the worst consequence of dropping the functions would be
"cache lookup failed" errors.
