Something like this:
create function supply_default() returns int as $$
begin
raise notice 'Supplied default';
return 1;
end;
$$ immutable language plpgsql;
xof=# create table t ( i integer default supply_default(), t text );
CREATE TABLE
xof=# insert into t(i, t) values (2, 'text');
INSERT 0 1
xof=# insert into t(t) values ('text');
NOTICE: Supplied default
INSERT 0 1
