This is correct;

This should be:

create function test_xyz3() returns table ( b xyz)  as
$$
declare
  bb xyz;
  cc xyz;
  r record
begin
  -- this case is not supported, you cannot to assign to list of composite
variables
  -- select b, c into bb, cc from test_xyz ;
  select b, c into r;
  bb := r.b;
 -- you cannot to use return bb, because expected result type is (xyz) not
xyz
  return next;
end;
$$ language plpgsql ;

I am not sure, if you want to use RETURNS table(), because in this case
multi row result is expected. In this case you should to use RETURN NEXT
instead RETURN in PLpgSQL

Help others help you by writing out exact error messages (many of us can
answer from just reading code and error messages without needing be able to
execute said code ourselves).  I suspect “table test_xyz not found” due to
the typo.

All three of these stem from:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/xfunc-sql.html#XFUNC-SQL-TABLE-FUNCTIONS

If the function is defined to return a composite type, the table function
produces a column for each attribute of the composite type.

Table(composite) == “setof composite”. (Though it seems to not be
explicitly documented in that way, it explains the observed behavior)

What version of Postgresql do you think has the bug?
Where did you get the Postgresql binaries from?
What platform?
