IMMUTABLE function's flag do not work: 7.3.4, plpgsql

Hi folks. I notice that immutable flag does nothing when i invoke
my plpgsql function within one session with same args.


tele=# SELECT version();
                           version
-------------------------------------------------------------
 PostgreSQL 7.3.4 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.96



At first EXPLAIN ANALYZE shown strange runtime :)

[15:41]/0:ant@monstr:~>time psql -c 'EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT calc_total(1466476, 1062363600, 1064955599)' tele
                                    QUERY PLAN
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Result  (cost=0.00..0.01 rows=1 width=0) (actual time=0.00..0.00 rows=1 loops=1)
 Total runtime: 0.02 msec
                ^^^^^^^^^
(2 rows)

real    0m19.282s
        ^^^^^^^^^




At second. calc_total() is immutable function:

tele=# SELECT provolatile from pg_proc where proname = 'calc_total' and pronargs =3;
 provolatile
-------------
 i

but it seems that it's not cached in one session:

[15:38]/0:ant@monstr:~>psql tele
