There are two patches - named and mixed parameters and protecting "AS"
as keyword. First patch is pl independed, second patch is related to
plpgsql. Both patches was in queue and Bernard did reviewing both I
thing. Second patch fix some unwanted behave in plpgsql and it does on
level that was possible on code base one month old.

I hope, so we will be able to integrate main parser to core. I hope so
this will be in next commitfest. If we doesn't release code after this
commitfest, then I'll prefer wait for integration, but now, when we
will release code, I thing, so for somebody should be nice to use
fixed plpgsql.

I thing so Steve fixed issues mentioned by Tom

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2009-05/msg00804.php

Integration of main parser to plpgsql will be very significant change
and it needs separate patch. This solve some others big problems
plpgsql and I would to solve it separately.

I'll be glad to answer all questions.
