Okay, it is an argument. On the other side, it was a question today in
the irc-channel (#postgresql) today, someone asked, why his funktion
don't work. I think, such examples should not contain such code. It is
not apparent that this function are not available.

Again, thx to all people behind PostgreSQL, it is a great thing and it
has a really informatively documentation. My post was only a hint to
make it better.
