Any thoughts on how to wrap pl/pgsql function dropping and recreation code
within a wrapper pl/pgsql function?
Not endorsing this but dynamic SQL works just fine (though can get hard to read). Use format() and EXECUTE ... USING liberally.
CREATE FUNCTION perform_update()...
AS $outer$
BEGIN
drop_sql := $inner$ DROP FUNCTION ...; $inner$
EXECUTE drop_sql;
END;
$outer$;
