I've had a look at the code. Sure looks like a major rewrite even if one
can't properly read C++. Promising! :)
I think the reported issue is rather grave, as it can silently change
functionality and break things. Therefore a new snapshot is very welcome.
Btw: I am sure you are aware that OUT parameters or parameter names are
not part of the function signature. This entry in the changelog suggests
otherwise - or did I get it wrong?

Currently pgAdmin 1.6.3 includes OUT parameters in many places where they aren't actually needed. Example:
ALTER FUNCTION myfunc(IN a integer, OUT b text) OWNER TO postgres;
This would suffice:
ALTER FUNCTION myfunc(integer) OWNER TO postgres;
Sorry if I am telling you things you already know. Just to make sure ..
Speaking of function management - I have mentioned this before on list
(as have others): one of my biggest wishes would be to merge the two
nodes "Procedures" and "Functions". The separation does not fit in with
Postgresql. It's causing me extra work and is a constant source of
confusion. Is this changelog entry the good news I think it is?
2007-03-09 DP 1.8.0 Treat all functions & procedures as 'Functions' in
PostgreSQL, and class only EnterpriseDB edbspl functions
returning void as 'Procedures'.
