The attached one-liner seems to do the trick. It should probably be
backpatched to 9.1. Remaining questions:

1) Are there other database object types, likely to be included in
extension scripts, that are also lacking dependency records to
their extension?

2) How should we handle already installed extensions, which will still
lack dependency records after this bugfix?

Thanks,

Joe
