Excerpts from Dimitri Fontaine's message of jue nov 04 11:06:48 -0300 2010:

Three comments,

1. wouldn't it make more sense to save the extension namespace in the
extension catalog?

2. I think the guts of AlterExtensionNamespace (the large switch block)
should be elsewhere, probably in alter.c

3. Not this patch, but I think using "extension" as a global variable
name is a bad idea.
