But if they restore a dump made with pg_dump or pg_dumpall, they'll get the old catalog entries sans STRICT, no? People might rebuild the module when they upgrade, but they might not think to drop and recreate the functions since the definitions are already in the dump.
I think it is asking for trouble in general to use the DDL from one version of pgcrypto with a different version of the pgcrypto implementation. However, you're right that people are inevitably going to do this, so I suppose we need to keep the checks. Perhaps it would be worth adding something to the installation documentation suggesting that people take care when installing new versions of contrib/ packages and the like without updating the DDL for those packages.
