I don't think there is any.  Maybe wrapping `raise exception' with a
function would work for you?  I'm using the following function to
raise exceptions from plain sql.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
create function error(text) returns void as $$
       begin
               raise exception '%', $1;
       end
       $$ language plpgsql;
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

However,
