You're wasting your time trying to do that in plpgsql --- quite aside
from syntactic difficulties, the language doesn't work well for this
because it's statically typed.  Use one of the other PL languages.
In plperl, for instance, a record looks like a hash and it's easy to
iterate through the keys etc.
