One other possiblity would be to push a version of pg_surgery that is compatible with the back-branches somewhere external (e.g. either git.postgresql.org and/or Github), so that it can be picked up by distributions and/or individual users in need. That is Assuming it does not need assorted server changes to go with; I did not read the thread in detail but I was under the assumption it is a client program?
