Well, if you really want to, you can do this at the beginning of each
function. It makes it completely fool-proof (until someone finds a
better fool ofcourse).

--- cut ---
if( PG_NARGS != exptectedargs )
   die ("bad args" );
for( i=0; i<PG_NARGS; i++ )
{
   if( PG_ARGISNULL(i) )
        PG_RETURN_NULL();
   if( get_fn_expr_argtype( fcinfo->flinfo, i ) != expectedtypes[i] )
        die("bad args" );
}

if( get_fn_expr_rettype(fcinfo->flinfo) )
    die "bad return type";
--- cut ---
