You are right. The real fix should actually be that an extension, that
creates different objects depending on the major server version it is
installed on, should not use the same version number for itself on those
two server versions. It is actually wrong to have DO blocks that execute
server version dependent sections in the CREATE EXTENSION scripts.
However similar the code may be, it is intended for different server
versions, so it is not the same version of the extension.
