"overpaid" in regress.so returns a boolean scalar, not a row of any
kind. It is the responsibility of the person issuing CREATE FUNCTION for
a C-language function to get the types right; if they are wrong, it can
(as you observed) crash the server, which is why this action is
restricted to database superusers.
