That's pretty interesting.  Could we see a complete (self-contained)
example of this problem, rather than a snippet?  And what PG version
is this exactly?

Given that line number, though, I wonder whether your problem is that
you tried to put several thousand nested IFs into one plpgsql function.
If so, the answer is probably "refactor your code".  You *will*
eventually hit this type of error if you nest stuff deeply enough.
I don't know exactly where the limit is, and it probably varies a
lot depending on platform, PG version, etc etc anyway.
