One more thing:
TRUNCATE has option CASCASE:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/sql-truncate.html

I don't remember since when, but 9.X has this option.

Another thing: Do You really need this function.....
AFAIK since 8.4 postgres has TRUNCATE privilage on Table
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/sql-grant.html
this is not the same as DELETE so, I think it is enough to grant this
privilage to user

Bartek
