=E2=80=8BMy gut reaction here is to type, by hand, the CREATE FUNCTION code=
into a
newly created text file and send it through psql. Your comment about
copy/paste and "non-visible characters" leads me to suspect that whatever
source you are copying from has been "poisoned" by a control character=E2=
=80=8B
that you can't see and that is causing a problem.
