Except it would break every piece of code that had a row_count variable, 
though I guess you could see which scoping level the variable had been 
defined in.

I think the right solution in this case is to replace GET DIAGNOSTICs 
with something easier to use, but I'm not sure what that would be.

I think this is another example of where not using some kind of 
character to distinguish variables screws us. :/
