Yes, doing an EXECUTE helped to create the function.

Thanks, Jeff. That's not good news, cause I am not able to do that.
The postgres manual says, that
" The intended usage of the feature is that a prepared transaction will
normally be committed or rolled back as soon as an external transaction
manager has verified that other databases are also prepared to commit. "
So does this "external transaction manager" exist? I am not clear about
what it is.
