The current source tree only lacks the parsers part to
specify

INITIALLY DEFERRED|IMMEDIATE
[ NOT ] DEFERRABLE

in a columns REFERENCES clause. They are fully supported in a
tables CONSTRAINT clause.

All the functionality for MATCH FULL is there too already.
Though, it's not well tested up to now, but that's not your
problem I assume.
