I am confused; my shell script does *not* contain a function definition.
I copied and pasted a shell session:
First, show the script that contains a function invocation.
Then, define and export the function.
Then, call psql
Then, escape to a subshell.
Then, call the script that successfully calls the function.
Am I missing something?
