I didn't study this patch deeper yet. Just I am sending rebased code
I found one issue. The context

is changed in any call - when I did "make installcheck"

I am not able to see, if this information is interesting or not. We can
hide context, but I have not a idea, if it is ok or not.

+
+ <para>
+ All Tcl errors that are allowed to propagate back to the top level of the
+ interpreter, that is, errors not caught within the stored procedure
+ using the Tcl <function>catch</function> command will raise a database
+ error.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Tcl code within or called from the stored procedure can choose to
+ raise a database error by invoking the <function>elog</function>
+ command provided by PL/Tcl or by generating an error using the Tcl
+ <function>error</function> command and not catching it with Tcl's
+ <function>catch</function> command.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Database errors that occur from the PL/Tcl stored procedure's
+ use of <function>spi_exec</function>, <function>spi_prepare</function>,
+ and <function>spi_execp</function> are also catchable by Tcl's
+ <function>catch</function> command.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Tcl provides an <varname>errorCode</varname> variable that can
+ represent additional information about the error in a form that
+ is easy for programs to interpret. The contents are in Tcl list
+ format and the first word identifies the subsystem or
+ library responsible for the error and beyond that the contents are left
+ to the individual code or library. For example if Tcl's
+ <function>open</function> command is asked to open a file that doesn't
+ exist, <varname>errorCode</varname>
+ might contain <literal>POSIX ENOENT {no such file or directory}</literal>
+ where the third element may vary by locale but the first and second
+ will not.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ When <function>spi_exec</function>, <function>spi_prepare</function>
+ or <function>spi_execp</function> cause a database error to be raised,
+ that database eror propagates back to Tcl as a Tcl error.
+ In this case <varname>errorCode</varname> is set to a list
+ where the first element is <literal>POSTGRES</literal> followed by a
+ copious decoding of the Postgres error structure. Since fields in the
+ structure may or may not be present depending on the nature of the
+ error, how the function was invoked, etc, PL/Tcl has adopted the
+ convention that subsequent elements of the <varname>errorCode</varname>
+ list are key-value pairs where the first value is the name of the
+ field and the second is its value.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Fields that may be present include <varname>message</varname>,
+ <varname>detail</varname>, <varname>detail_log</varname>,
+ <varname>hint</varname>, <varname>domain</varname>,
+ <varname>context_domain</varname>, <varname>context</varname>,
+ <varname>schema</varname>, <varname>table</varname>,
+ <varname>column</varname>, <varname>datatype</varname>,
+ <varname>constraint</varname>, <varname>cursor_position</varname>,
+ <varname>internalquery</varname>, <varname>internal_position</varname>,
+ <varname>filename</varname>, <varname>lineno</varname> and
+ <varname>funcname</varname>.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ You might find it useful to load the results into an array. Code
+ for doing that might look like
+ <programlisting>
+ if {[lindex $errorCode 0] == "POSTGRES"} {
+ array set errorRow [lrange $errorCode 1 end]
+ }
+ </programlisting>
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ In the example below we cause an error by attempting to
+ <command>SELECT</> from a table that doesn't exist.
+ <screen>
+ select tcl_eval('spi_exec "select * from foo;"');
