While you are using the old versions, I believe you can retrieve the
columns by calling them by name. At least this works on 7.2:
create table vw_teams (a int, b int);
insert into vw_teams values (1, 2);
insert into vw_teams values (3, 4);
select a(test()), b(test());
a | b
---+---
1 | 2
3 | 4
(2 rows)
I suspect the function is being evaluated twice for each row. Maybe
there's a better way.
