[HACKERS] can we create a record of more than one field?

[Jaime Casanova]

Hi,

in the spanish list someone reports that the following function
doesn't even compile:

CREATE FUNCTION select_temporal(OUT valor integer) RETURNS SETOF record AS
$BODY$
begin
return query select 1::integer;
return;
end;
$BODY$
LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' VOLATILE;

and this is the error message
ERROR:  function result type must be integer because of OUT parameters

i was expecting the result to be a record because of the SETOF record.
it's a bug or intentional?

this is in 8.3.4
