Wanting it to work isn't going to change the fact that 8.0 has better
support for composite types than previous versions.  See the 8.0 Release
Notes:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/static/release-8-0.html

One of the items under "Server-Side Language Changes" is:

* More support for composite types (row and record variables) in PL/pgSQL

  For example, it now works to pass a rowtype variable to another
  function as a single variable.

If you're using a version older than 8.0 then you'll have to work
within its limitations.
