upgrading to postgresql 8
when i upgraded from 7.4 to 8 many of my functions no loger worked,
they all had something in common:
DECLARE
produto RECORD;
BEGIN
FOR producto IN SELECT producto FROM p LOOP
the error reported was: record "producto" is not assigned yet
i finally realized that name of the variable can no longer be the same
as the name of a column in the select statement.
i guess i will just have to re-write all my functions or is there way
around this?

That generally didn't work before, either. I think it might have
accidentally failed to not work for record/rowtype variables, but those
are now treated much like other variables.
