Note: At present, this section is just taken from PostgreSQL documentation and is subject to revision for Postgres-XC.
   The argument values supplied to a PL/Perl function's code are
   simply the input arguments converted to text form (just as if they
   had been displayed by a SELECT statement).
   Conversely, the return and return_next
   commands will accept any string that is acceptable input format
   for the function's declared return type.
