Hi!
 
The other day when i tried to call a function that returns a set, and i got some error that bla bla context bla bla error =)
 
After i checked the sources i found that the driver is calling "select myfunc()"(<7.3) instead of "select * from myfunc()"(<=7.3)
 
So i wrote myself the following patch, now i wonder why this havent been done earlier?
