plpgsql doesn't think you should execute bare SELECTs, only SELECT INTO.
On reflection this seems an overly anal-retentive restriction, since
there are cases where one might execute a SELECT for its side effects
alone ("SELECT setval()" comes to mind).
Jan, do you think there's a good case for refusing plain SELECTs?
