Thanks for double-checking.  I have applied and back-patched.  The good
thing here is that there were zero conflicts.

I don't quite get this argument.  If a user is willing to drop
template1, then it is logic to also drop its initial privilege entries
and recreate new ones from scratch.  I think that this deserves a
closer lookup.  For tablespaces, we are limited by the ability of not
sharing pg_init_privs?
