There is an upcoming implementation of schemas in PostgreSQL
hopefully for 7.3, and some work is being done already towards
it (see Bill Studenmund's proposed implementation of packages as a step
forward to the schemas and discussion arisen from it).
But for now, there is no such a hack to my knowledge.
