RE: Inheritance of functions shows unexpected behaviour

Thank you. 

I hope the fix will implement polymorphism also, i.e., if a superclass and
subclass define an identically-named function, then calling the function on
all records of the superclass should transparently call the subclass's
function for the records corresponding to the subclass.

Regards,

Ganesh

I agree, plpgsql is doing the wrong thing here.  Fix committed for
7.1.1.
