Cannot replicate:

$ CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION kill_backend()
>> RETURNS VOID
>> AS $$
>> DROP TABLE if EXISTS foo;
>> CREATE TABLE foo AS SELECT * FROM pg_class LIMIT 1;

CREATE FUNCTION

PostgreSQL 9.1.2 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc-4.6.real (Debian 4.6.2-5) 4.6.2, 64-bit
(1 row)
Side note - definition as is, doesn't work on 9.2:
$ CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION kill_backend()
>> RETURNS VOID
>> AS $$
>> DROP TABLE if EXISTS foo;
>> CREATE TABLE foo AS SELECT * FROM pg_class LIMIT 1;
>> $$ LANGUAGE 'SQL';
ERROR: language "SQL" does not exist
changing it to proper sql (not uppercase) fixed this problem.
