There's an example in the manuals - chapter "7.2.1.4. Table Functions"
SELECT *
FROM dblink('dbname=mydb', 'select proname, prosrc from pg_proc')
AS t1(proname name, prosrc text)
WHERE proname LIKE 'bytea%';
So basically, you need to supply the type definitions in your SELECT if
you aren't going to supply it in the function definition.
