OK, the attached documentation patch provides some simple examples of
use of tablename as a parameter, %ROWTYPE and %TYPE.
In the end I decided that the documentation is literally correct, but
hard to follow without any examples explicitly showing the use of a
table name as a parameter.

rather than having its own somewhat half-baked notion of what a type
declaration looks like. This is necessary now to ensure that plpgsql
will think a 'timestamp' variable has the same semantics as 'timestamp'
does in the main SQL grammar; and it should avoid divergences in future.
rather than making index.html a symlink to the autogenerated name.
Fixes fatal problems with tar programs that don't handle symlinks
very well (MacOS X).
(The names user.html, admin.html, etc. are still available as make
targets, but they aren't packaged anymore.)
Use the manifest file that the stylesheets generate as the file list
for packaging. Put graphics in the right place while building, not
while packaging, so you can actually look at them after building.
which says that PERFORM will execute any SELECT query and discard the
result. The former implementation would in fact raise an error if the
result contained more than one row or more than one column.
Also, change plpgsql's error-logging mechanism to emit the additional
messages about error location at NOTICE rather than DEBUG level. This
allows them to be seen by the client without having to dig into the
postmaster log file (which may be nonexistent or inaccessible by the
client).
