Thank you for your responses, Pavel, and for your excellent blog pages.

Sorry, I am struggling with this a bit:

Currently, I am producing the whereclause on a subset of columns:

SELECT  array_to_string (array(
  SELECT  newrecord.key || ' = ' ||  quote_literal(newrecord.value)
  FROM (SELECT (each(hstore(NEW))).*) AS newrecord
WHERE newrecord.key LIKE 'id%' ), ' AND ')
INTO whereclause;

That gives me, for example:
SELECT 1 FROM test WHERE id1 = '26' AND id2 = 'name2' FOR UPDATE;

In an attempt to use EXECUTE '...' USING, I tried to execute
SELECT 1 FROM test WHERE id1 = $1 AND id2 = $2 FOR UPDATE;

I produced an array of corresponding values:
SELECT  array(
  SELECT  newrecord.value
    FROM (SELECT (each(hstore(NEW))).*) AS newrecord
    WHERE newrecord.key LIKE 'id%'
)  INTO av; -- text array

EXECUTE '...' USING av

==> ERROR: operator does not exist: integer = text[]
