I am not at work at the moment and I don't have the possibility to compile PostgreSQL on this computer, so the example
hereis from memory.
The issue I saw was this: assume you have an extension foo, containing one function, test().
CREATE EXTENSION foo;
DROP FUNCTION test();
-- restricted due to dependency
ALTER FUNCTION test() RENAME TO test2;
DROP FUNCTION test2();
-- not restricted!
The same can be done using CREATE OR REPLACE.
I hope this is not an error on my part. It is possible because I had a lot of schemas and my search_path might have
beenwrong...

PS: Using web email client, I hope this comes out in somewhat sane format.
