I use triggers, PL/pgSQL procedures/functions, and rules on 6.5.2, and I have
experienced a number of what might be called instability problems for whatever
reason.  A review of the posts to the pgsql mailing lists will confirm that you
are not alone in finding some points of instability.  But the extent of any
instability is not clear.  Watch for a web poll announcement in January to get
a better handle on that data...
