You can't use savepoints, you can trap errors which is implemented using
savepoints. You still might want to write code like this:
BEGIN
....
SAVEPOINT foo;
....
IF SOME_ERROR_CODE = 1234 THEN
ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT foo;
END
...
You can write code like this if you issue each command from the client,
say using libpq, but not in pl/pgsql.
