I took a look at this tonight and am a bit mystified by the following bit:

+                       /*
+                        * PL doesn't calculate first row of function's body
+                        * when first row is empty. So checks first row, and
+                        * correct lineno when it is necessary.
+                        */

Is that true of any PL, or just some particular PL?  Is the behavior
described here a bug that we should fix, or is it, for some reason,
considered correct?  Is it documented in our documentation?

The implementation of first_row_is_empty() looks pretty kludgey, too.
It seems to me that it will fail completely if the text of the
function definition happens to contain $function$.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION boom() RETURNS text LANGUAGE plpgsql AS $$
BEGIN SELECT '$function$'; END $$;
