Not sure I follow. The argument is an int (or int4 as it defaults to)
and I tried various combos of int and int4 in the procedure definition
As for the opaque type return, I get an error message when I try to
create an SQL function returning opaque. The "SELECT 1 AS ignore_this"
is taken straight from the examples.

I have the current sources (I sup daily) but I couldn't find any examples
of fcreate trigger.
