Luca, in addition to this:

that feature is on the "Features We Do *Not* Want " list of the
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Todo list:

Obfuscated function source code (not wanted) Obfuscating function source
code has minimal protective benefits because anyone with super-user access
can find a way to view the code. At the same time, it would greatly
complicate backups and other administrative tasks. To prevent
non-super-users from viewing function source code, remove SELECT permission
on pg_proc.
