I notice that all the functions with the same name but different args
are actually sql statements which SELECT the result of the function
call using a different (and unique) name..

Wouldn't this cause slowdowns? Shouldn't you be able to have a
different name for your function in pgsql than in the shared library,
without having to resort to such hacks?
