hmm. it seems defaul pgsql installation does not contains definition for
plpgsql language:

test=# select * from pg_language ;
lanname | lanispl | lanpltrusted | lanplcallfoid | lancompiler
----------+---------+--------------+---------------+-------------
internal | f | f | 0 | n/a
C | f | f | 0 | /bin/cc
sql | f | f | 0 | postgres
(3 rows)

however, plpgsql.so is in pgsql lib directory (though it is *NOT* visible
by ldconfig -r)

My installation is 7.1.3 under FreeBSD 4-stable. Is it somehow my fault or
does it need to manually do something like

create function plpgsql_handler() ...
create language 'plpgsql' ...

? Please give me advise how exactly should these statements look?
