spi_exec_query("CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION my_tmp_func() RETURNS void AS
$cmd LANGUAGE sql;");

You're interpolating $cmd here but not quoting it, so you end up with:
... RETURNS void AS CREATE TABLE test-table...
whereas you want:
... RETURNS void AS 'CREATE TABLE test-table...'...

Probably best to use dollar-quoting: $TMP$ or similar, but don't forget to escapt the $ or perl will think it's a variable.
