Google tells me this was in Greenplum's 3.2 release notes:
Resolved Issues in 3.2 -
3164 Too many updates/deletes within transaction error in serializable
transactions
In 3.1.1.4 and later, certain serializable transactions containing
function calls or TRUNCATE commands would fail with the error: ERROR:
Too many updates/deletes within transaction..
