Possibly, but we never guarantee no initdb until final release anyway.

Teodor is right that this is a bug fix and so can be postponed on its
own terms.  But moving rtree_gist into the core looks like a feature
change to me, so if that's going to happen it has to happen before
1 July.  It would be a lot easier to sell that if it gave the right
answers ;-)
