Huh?  Who said anything about a separate REPLACE FUNCTION command?  It's
just an option in CREATE.

I don't think that I'd care for a separate REPLACE FUNCTION command,
since that's just a peculiar spelling of ALTER FUNCTION, and
historically we've used ALTER for that sort of thing.  But that's not
what's being proposed here anyway.
