I've not read the patch in detail, but this sketch of what to do
sounds fine.

catversion is not relevant to GUC changes.  It's not really necessary,
because you'd get a clean, easily diagnosed and repaired failure during
postmaster startup anyway.  The point of bumping catversion is to prevent
a postmaster starting when the incompatibility is subtler or harder to
debug than that.
