I guess you're using 9.2 or older? You are not allowed to update the
deleted row in a BEFORE trigger. The source has this comment about it
(in 9.3 onwards):

I'm using 9.1 (as of debian wheezy)

IOW, it is a bug discovered during the 9.2 release that was deemed improper
to back-patch.

However, the bug applies to behavior that should only happen by mistake; you
should not have a trigger that updates the row you are currently deleting.

Hmmm. I was just exersising it, as the most "elegant" resolve to my case:
1. I have a shopping chart with items
2. which (conditionally) turns into an invoice on chart deletion.
3. the assumption is: the chart is not very rigouroiusly checked during its lifetime. 4. but the invoice have to .... so some "cleanup" is due just before an item is deleted from the chart.

But, I understand that as of now, I cannot do that by "trigger avalanche" :(
