In the current version, any database error encountered while
running a <application>PL/Python</application> function will result
in the immediate termination of that function by the server; it is
not possible to trap error conditions using Python <literal>try

SQL statement passed to the <literal>plpy.execute</literal> call
will terminate the function. This behavior may be changed in a
future release.
