You can't ... NEW and OLD are of unspecified-record types, and there's
no support for passing such things to other functions. You pretty much
have to do the tedious "myfunc(NEW.f1, NEW.f2, ...)".
I've done some work recently to improve the support for passing record
types around as full-fledged datatypes. The above still doesn't quite
work, and I can't promise that it'll get done for 7.5, but hopefully by
the release after that it will.
