On rechecking the archives, it looks like Peter now agrees with removing
the existing postgresql_fdw_validator and creating a new one in dblink:

So I think everyone is on the same page about this now. I see a couple
of cosmetic things I don't like about the latest version of that patch,
but I'll fix them and commit.
