Comment:

 The patch wasn't commit ready, I have polished it somewhat, but it still
 needs some more polish:
   - the note for versions prior to 9.1 isn't correct, you need to do
 create extension even in 9.1, and the actual differentiator isn't
 PostgreSQL version, it is PostGIS version
   - the CREATE EXTENSION docs will not build properly
   - it seems one needs to install GDAL before installing PostGIS 2.0.

 I also needed to install libxml2-dev, but I am not sure if we are trying
 to track all dependencies of postgis.

 Once I got Postgis 2.0 installed, the tests pass just like on 1.5. There
 are three test failures using postgis, but it seems the failures are old
 ones. I am now trying to track the existing failures.

 I did already some updates to the patch:
 https://github.com/akaariai/django/tree/postgis2, but now I am out of
 time.
