That's the heart of the matter - PostgreSQL is a C project. All of the
other languages we use for PL/*, such as Perl, PHP, R, tcl, Python, etc.
are, at their heart, written in C. That's why I think comparing pl/java
to other pl languages is not apples to apples. Like Tom, I am also
uneasy about putting so much non-C code into the core.
