How does $subject differ from what we already do?  See
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/plpgsql-structure.html
particularly this:

	Note: There is actually a hidden "outer block" surrounding the
	body of any PL/pgSQL function. This block provides the
	declarations of the function's parameters (if any), as well as
	some special variables such as FOUND (see Section 39.5.5). The
	outer block is labeled with the function's name, meaning that
	parameters and special variables can be qualified with the
	function's name.
