This indicates some sort of internal mismatch in the server.  I seem to
recall that one particular combination of server version and (different)
plpgsql.so version would happen to fail in this way.

Strange... I'm using the Gentoo-version of PostgreSQL 7.4.6 and since
it's a fresh install of PostgreSQL, all components are of the same
version...

But are you sure there wasn't a previous version of PG already on the
machine?  It sure looks to me like you have some code that's out of step
about the syscache numbers, and as I said the most likely theory for
that is an out-of-date plpgsql.so getting picked up from someplace.

I'm quite sure all of PostgreSQL got installed in 1 go when I ran a
'emerge postgresql'    8-)

ARE JOINS ALLOWED IN UPDATE STATEMENTS?

Whether they are or not, could you please give me a syntax I can use to
update FROM multiple tables (>2)? I prefer to use a syntax that includes
'join'.
