Bug reference:      2315
Logged by:          Alexander Kirpa
Email address:      postgres@bilteks.com
PostgreSQL version: 8.1.3
Operating system:   FreeBSD 6.0
Description:        Crash engine after modify "active" function
Details:

FUNCTION f1(text, int4)
DECLARE
BEGIN
...
id:=f2(ww);
...
RETURN xx;
END;
FUNCTION f2(text)


SELECT f1(c1) FROM t1, where table t1 big for long run

During run, simple modify function f2, no any serious internal changes
within function, only move some string
for change application logic.

After write (commit) function changes over pgadmin Postgres engine crash

Possible reason - no transaction isolation for function.

I can't reproduce this in HEAD.  I think it's probably the same bug
already reported here:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2006-03/msg00006.php
and fixed here:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2006-03/msg00022.php
