Looks like the system is trying to use the literal filename
"${exec_prefix}/lib/plpgsql.so", which of course is not right.

I'm guessing that when you copied the CREATE FUNCTION out of the
example, you just cut and pasted without doing the shell variable
expansion that was supposed to happen to replace ${exec_prefix}
with /usr/local/pgsql ...
