I'm not sure whether the code can determine whether the check gets
triggered by an UPDATE or an INSERT (both commands lead to this code
path). Please note that the already-existing error message (the "ERROR:
" line in the output I enclosed) already uses the phrase "new row".

That said, I'll of course be more than happy to include whatever string
which fits better, and am open to any suggestions.
