Seems I should have RTFMed more ;-). I believe I even read this
paragraph, but thought this refers to C-Functions, not plpgsql ones.
Thanks for pointing this out.

I didn't test on anything other than 8.0 - but I used the 7.4 docu, not
the 8.0 one, and since the docu says that trigger functions _can_ take
parameters, I somehow believed that it has to be possible to _declare_
those arguments - Well, guess I should read more carefully ;-)
