Also try turning on query logging, so you can see in the postmaster
log the queries plpgsql is sending to the SQL engine.  This is especially
helpful for catching unexpected substitutions or lack of substitutions
of plpgsql variables, as in Morgan Curley's recent problem over in
pgsql-sql.

A volunteer to improve plpgsql's debugging/tracing facilities would
be favorably received...
