Not quite.  I tried the following:

Parameters: $1=integer, $2=NULL, $3=varchar

And I had the function test for nulls.  It read the first
parameter, but not $3.  It did return the string telling me
it had found nulls, however.

Damn!  When is the "holy grail" of PostgreSQL going to be
stable enough to use?  Beta3 still has a "not advisable for
production" warning, and I'm being tied up in knots by the
number of things I need in 7.1.

Would it help if I sent more money?  :-)
