Yes, Raymond - I know how to return record set in function using FOR,
but since version 8.3 there is a option - using RETURN QUERY SELECT
something FROM somewhere;. So if it works for SELECT why should it not
work for EXECUTE ?

While experimenting I found that if I wright FOR rec IN EXECUTE 'my sql'

syntax error. Is it a bug?
No, it's a syntax error. :-)
You need to do something like this to return the rows from the query:
FOR rec in EXECUTE 'your sql here'
LOOP
RETURN NEXT rec;
END LOOP;
RETURN; -- exits from the function.
