I think what he wants to do is dynamically create a function from the client
side by issuing a CREATE FUNCTION statement (presumably one of the built-ins?
SQL, pl/pgSQL, pl/pgTcl.) For what its worth, I've issued a host of unlreated
DDL statements through PQexec and all of them have worked as expected, although
CREATE FUNCTION was never one of them...
