After having a look into the documentation on CREATE TYPE
I would say the statement looks very wrong. But I haven't done
any user defined type so far, so I can't be of any help in this case.
The CREATE FUNCTION statement is not considered to accept
parameter names within the parameter list.
So use
create function kick_dumby(dumby_type) returns INTEGER AS '
DECLAREdumby ALIAS FOR $1;
