Ah, good point... "works" for very small values of "works" then :-) My

Fair enough. I was fooled because it works this way in Oracle (well, at any
rate, that's what's in the stored procs I'm porting) and it didn't fail at
create time in 8.0.3.

Without really wishing to volunteer myself: should plpgsql allow using
parameters with the same name as the columns being referred to within the
function, provided they're qualified as function_name.parameter?
