The "opaque" type has been split into several different ones, if you're
using a recent version of PG, you'll want "RETURNS trigger".

This usually means you redefined something - PG isn't smart enough (yet)
to re-check all the dependencies in something like this. I'd guess you
dropped/recreated the function after defining the trigger, yes?
The solution in older versions is to put the CREATE FUNCTION and CREATE
TRIGGER in the same file so that you drop/recreate both together.
