user aggregate with exception handling

Hi. I need to apply a postgis aggregate function. Since usual usage throws errors, in case of error I need to use the aggregate function with another argument to avoid an error. As far as I know I can do it as an exception handler in user defined function, but in 'create function' there seems to be some limitation on using aggregate functions. On the other hand in 'create aggregate' there's no room for exception handling.Below is what I tried to do:CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION jz_union_safe(g geometry)RETURNS geometry AS$$BEGIN    RETURN ST_union(g);    EXCEPTION        WHEN OTHERS THEN        BEGIN                RETURN ST_union(ST_Buffer(g, 0));                EXCEPTION                    WHEN OTHERS THEN            BEGIN                RETURN ST_union(ST_Buffer(g, 0.000000001));                EXCEPTION                    WHEN OTHERS THEN                        BEGIN                            RETURN ST_union(ST_Buffer(g, 0.00000001));                            EXCEPTION                                WHEN OTHERS THEN                                    BEGIN                                        RETURN ST_GeomFromText('POLYGON EMPTY');                                    END;                        END;            END;    END;END$$LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' STABLE STRICT;The function get's created, but when called as: select id, jz_union_safe(gu) from my_table group by 1it complains:ERROR:  column "my_table.gu" must appear in the GROUP BY clause or be used in an aggregate functionLINE 1: select id, jz_union_safe(gu) from my_table...                                             ^and even if I extend to : select id, jz_union_safe(gu) from my_table group by 1, guit returns rows not aggregated on id level, but with id values multiplied.How can I achieve the goal?
