    Are  you  sure  on  that?  Doesn't  TOAST  mean that any user
    defined function  recieving  variable  size  attributes  must
    expect  them  now  to  be  compressed  or stored external and
    change it's access to them going through the  untoasting?  Or
    do  you  do  that for old style 'C' functions all the time in
    the fmgr now?
