I'll try, but it will be quite hard.

At least the plan for the problematic query looks like this

cas=# explain UPDATE table_list SET description = 'tag{image SRC="/vizier/new2.gif"}3rd release of DENIS (2005Sep)'
WHERE id = cas_get_table_id ('cas_data_sega','b_denis_denis5' );
QUERY PLAN 
 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NestedLoop  (cost=0.01..17.11 rows=2 width=82)   ->  Index Scan using table_user_list_pkey on table_user_list
(cost=0.00..8.02rows=1 width=10)         Index Cond: (cas_get_table_id('cas_data_sega'::character varying,
'b_denis_denis5'::charactervarying) = id)   ->  Append  (cost=0.00..9.07 rows=2 width=76)         ->  Index Scan using
table_user_list_pkeyon table_user_list  (cost=0.00..8.02 rows=1 width=76)               Index Cond: (id =
cas_get_table_id('cas_data_sega'::charactervarying, 'b_denis_denis5'::character varying))         ->  Seq Scan on
table_list (cost=0.00..1.04 rows=1 width=51)               Filter: (id = cas_get_table_id('cas_data_sega'::character
varying,'b_denis_denis5'::character varying))
 
(8 rows)

As I see from it, it generates two seq. scans for one table (table_user_list)

Will it be enough to provide the testcase for just that 'expain UPDATE' ?
