The whole extension is not in template1, else "CREATE FROM unpackaged"
would have worked.  But evidently there are at least some conflicting
objects there.  I speculate that somebody installed a pre-9.1 version of
the extension in template1, realized their mistake, and then tried to
clean it out manually (piecemeal) instead of using the uninstall script.
And missed some things.

Anyway the solution is to connect to template1 and drop any cruft that's
lying around in it.
