    The  current  source  tree  only  lacks  the  parsers part to
    specify

        INITIALLY DEFERRED|IMMEDIATE
        [ NOT ] DEFERRABLE

    in a columns REFERENCES clause. They are fully supported in a
    tables CONSTRAINT clause.

    All  the  functionality  for MATCH FULL is there too already.
    Though, it's not well tested up to now, but that's  not  your
    problem I assume.
