I sort of like the visual cue of seeing ereport(ERROR ..  since it makes it
clear it will break execution then and there, this will require a lookup for
anyone who don't know the function by heart.  That being said, reducing
duplicated boilerplate has clear value and this reduce the risk of introducing
strings which are complicated to translate.  On the whole I think this is a net
win, and the patch looks pretty good.

-               DefElem    *defel = (DefElem *) lfirst(option);
+               defel = (DefElem *) lfirst(option);
Any particular reason to include this in the patch?
