Hello,
thank you for time. I thing so plpgsql is too much different language
than plpgpsm - mainly there is different concept of catching errors,
cursor's declaration and operation and different statements. My tip:
gram.y - conformance 10%
pl_exec.c - conf. 40%
pl_func.c - conf 80% (diff in dump functions)
scan.l - conf. 99%
I can't to say so plpgpsm is an dialect of plpgsql. Minimally there
are different parser. I am sure so supported functions can be shared,
but it's mean really dramatic changes in plpgsql code. I belive so
separated languages will be more maintainable.

I'll correct it, thank you very much
