8.0 actually behaves the same way: the COMMIT gets you out of the
transaction block.  It just tells you that it's treating it as a
rollback:

regression=# comm;
ERROR:  syntax error at or near "comm" at character 1
LINE 1: comm;
        ^
regression=# commit;
ROLLBACK
regression=#

whereas prior versions did the rollback but still reported the command
tag as COMMIT.  AFAIR, Postgres has always acted that way.
