YES!!! The chdir caused the error! Thanks very much for this help. BTW it was worse than just "not a very good idea" to use chdir - After generating the error, I would lose the ability to see things in my database until restarting postgresql. All's okay now!

PostgreSQL internally uses relative paths.  It's probably not a very
good idea to use 'chdir' in a procedure.
