Yes I knew, I wrote "clean workaround" :-)
I hate write in function piece of code like this:
~ [...]
~ my_stm := ''SELECT '' || my_operation || ''( '' || a_id_transaction;
~ my_stm := my_stm || '', '' || a_id_contract;
~ my_stm := my_stm || '', '' || quote_literal(a_date) || '') AS res'';
~ FOR my_record IN EXECUTE my_stm LOOP
~ IF my_record.res < 0 THEN
~ RETURN my_record.res;
~ END IF;
~ EXIT;
~ END LOOP;
~ [...]
note also that useless loop that is needed to retrieve the value!
