This patch still needs work.

I think the docs need more than just "these variables are set when an
exception is raised".

The patch current resets SQLSTATE and SQLERRM whenever a new block is
entered. So:

create function trap_exceptions() returns void as $_$
begin
begin
raise exception 'first exception';
exception when others then
raise notice '% %', SQLSTATE, SQLERRM;
begin
raise notice '% %', SQLSTATE, SQLERRM;
end;
end;
return;
end; $_$ language plpgsql;

The second RAISE will report "successful completion". Is this the
behavior we want?

Is SQLERRM the best name for that variable? It seems a little obscure to me.
