For those of us who use PG and not Oracle a description of the
functionality you need would help, the artifacts of your current
implementation are less helpful.  That said:

  plpgsql can RAISE NOTICE, which looks similar to DBMS_OUTPUT

  most "untrusted" scripting languages (i.e. plperl or plpython) can
  touch the filesystem, which is what UTL_FILE seems to be about
