I think that all objects must be supported.
User application may depend on them, so silently casting them to the 
void during upgrade may ruin someones day.
But also I think, that this work should be done piecemeal, to make 
testing and reviewing easier, and functions are a good candidate for a 
first go.

I think that warning without any concrete details on functions involved 
is confusing.

I would prefer to warn about every function (so he can more quickly 
assess the situation)  AND generate script. It is good to save some user 
time, because he is going to need that script anyway.


I`ve tested the master patch:

1. upgrade from 9.5 and lower is broken:

[gsmol@deck upgrade_workdir]$ /home/gsmol/task/13_devel/bin/pg_upgrade 
-b /home/gsmol/task/9.5.19/bin/ -B /home/gsmol/task/13_devel/bin/ -d 
/home/gsmol/task/9.5.19/data -D /tmp/upgrade

2. I think that message "Your installation contains non-default 
privileges for system procedures for which the API has changed." must 
contain versions:
"Your PostgreSQL 9.5 installation contains non-default privileges for 
system procedures for which the API has changed in PostgreSQL 12."
