Well, right now, BEGIN inside a transaction just issues a warning:
test=> BEGIN;BEGINtest=> BEGIN;WARNING:  there is already a transaction in progressBEGINtest=> SELECT 1;
?column?----------       1(1 row)test=> COMMIT;COMMIT
 

I think you can make the case that this should be an error, or at least
that's how it got on the TODO list.  I can always remove it if people
don't want the item completed.
