Subject: Bug#98643: plpgsql SELECT INTO causes trouble when assignment impossib  le

Package: postgresql
Version: 7.1.1-4
Severity: important

After
psql template1 -f x.sql

where x.sql looks as follows:

- ----- x.sql -----
CREATE DATABASE test;
\c test
CREATE TABLE foo (bar int4);
INSERT INTO foo VALUES (17);
CREATE FUNCTION quux() RETURNS int4 AS '
DECLAREbaz int4;
BEGINSELECT INTO baz bar FROM foo WHERE bar > 23;RETURN 42;
END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
SELECT quux();
- ----------

I get this on screen:

CREATE DATABASE
You are now connected to database test.
CREATE
INSERT 117035 1
CREATE
psql:x.sql:13: pqReadData() -- backend closed the channel unexpectedly.       This probably means the backend
terminatedabnormallybefore or while processing the request.
 
psql:x.sql:13: connection to server was lost

And this in logs:
