Again, the functions doesn't depend on the table, other example:

test=# select * from foo;
 id | val
----+-----
  1 | 100
  2 | 200
  3 | 300
(3 rows)

Time: 0,235 ms
test=*# create or replace function fail(int) returns int as $$declare r
int; begin execute 'select val from foo where id = ' || $1 || ';' into
r; return r;end; $$language plpgsql;
CREATE FUNCTION
Time: 0,547 ms
test=*# select * from fail(1);
 fail
------
  100
(1 row)

Time: 0,473 ms
test=*# drop table foo;
DROP TABLE
Time: 0,387 ms
test=*# select * from fail(1);
ERROR:  relation "foo" does not exist
LINE 1: select val from foo where id = 1;
                        ^
QUERY:  select val from foo where id = 1;
CONTEXT:  PL/pgSQL function "fail" line 1 at EXECUTE statement


In this case, the query inside the function is a dynamic query. So what?
