Hmm, that might just be it.

When I select from a view based on a function which returns a base type, 
I only get the first row. When I select from a view which is based on a 
function returning a composite type, it triggers an assertion. I've 
traced the latter down to a slot pointer which is reset to NULL 
somewhere. Haven't had the time to get much further. In both cases, 
selecting from the function directly works great.

Thanks,
