Sorry, I didn't understand your reply.

The problem is this:

- we need to find the TupleDesc of the function's expected return type
for tuple-returning functions

- we can't use estate->rsi for the RETURN case, at least as presently
implemented, because that is not always filled-out -- the example I gave
before shows how because we don't check for a compatible TupleDesc when
estate->rsi is NULL, we end up returning a value that is incompatible
with the function's declared return type

- therefore, we need to use some other way to get the TupleDesc of the
function's declared return type. Offhand I think we can use
estate->fn_rettype (plus the funcapi stuff for handling RECORDOID), but
I haven't had a chance to try it yet.
