PostGIS is an extension to PostGreSQL and as such installs functions and code 
directly within the PostgreSQL framework rather than being an API to dialogue 
with the database. As such, it is somehow dependent on PostgreSQL guts. I 
clearly remember more than once reading in the PostGIS changelog: ‘First 
version to be compatible with PostgreSQL 9.x’, and it was not a major bump, 
like from 8.x to 9.0. That’s why I adopted a rather conservative approach.

But I’m going to upgrade at the next PostgreSQL 9.4.x sub-release.
