please ask future questions of this nature on the general list. the
hackers list is reserved for things pertaining to postgresql
development.
anywyays, the answer is easy:
sql (imo preferred for this case):
create function do_stuff returns void as
$$
update foo set bar = 1 where foo_id = 2;
[repeat as necessary]
$$ language sql;
plpgsql:
create function do_stuff returns void as
$$
begin
update foo set bar = 1 where foo_id = 2;
[repeat as necessary]
end;
$$ language plpgsql;
