Do you mean something like this:

Datum
regprocout(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
{

...

if( donot_resolve_procname == TRUE)
{
result = (char *) palloc(NAMEDATALEN);
snprintf(result, NAMEDATALEN, "%u", proid);
}

...

PG_RETURN_CSTRING(result);
}

donot_resolve_procname will be set when COPY will be performed.
