I tried the following function:
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
create function drus (timestamp) returns varchar AS'
    DECLARE
        str_created VARCHAR;
        created ALIAS FOR $1;
    BEGIN
        str_created:= to_char(created, ''YYYY'');
        RETURN str_created;
    END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

create index session_u_idx on session (drus(created));
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
But it failes with: 
ERROR:  DefineIndex: index function must be marked isImmutable

Now the question is how do I mark an index function isImmutable?
