I have the lastest PostGIS version. When I query:

select ST_HasBBOX(the_geom) from table_geom limit 1

I get this error: ERROR: function st_hasbbox(geometry) does not exist

Why this function does not exists

This may of relevance: gis.stackexchange.com/questions/8237/postgis-installation-error - they have it there too. – GIS-Jonathan Nov 9 '12 at 16:43

The other PostGIS functions works fine, but I get these error with ST_HasBBOX, also with ST_addBBOX and ST_dropBBOX – José Alejandro Nov 9 '12 at 16:47

If you really have PostGIS 2.0.x, try PostGIS_HasBBox.

However do you really need this function? The documentation says it should only be used in exceptional circumstances.
