My original problem report was November, 2012:
http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/50b3d11f.20...@2ndquadrant.com
and my patch to fix this was July 4. Tom gave me a code snipped to test
PL/pgSQL's handling of record types. I tested that and it looked ok,
but there are other place to test that I don't know about.

This issue is so much larger than the patch's validity that I don't see
how that would work.
I obviously can't complete this, so I am adding a TODO item:
IS NULL testing of nested ROW() values is inconsistent
All my patches are in that thread in case someone who can complete this
item wants to take it over.
