It seems that this _requires_ PostgreSQL 8.0.  I conducted the tests on
that and now find it won't do the insert in 7.4.5:

INSERT INTO journal (yearend, subpd, line_cnt, ref, currency,
ldg_codes,depts, accounts, dates, amounts, lrefs, narratives) VALUES
('31 Mar 2004',1,2,'TEST2','GBP',ARRAY ['GL','GL'],ARRAY
['LF','LF'],ARRAY ['SHAREORD','PANDL'],ARRAY['1 Apr 2003'::DATE,'1 Apr
2003'::DATE],ARRAY [2713.0,-2713.00],ARRAY ['A1','A2'],ARRAY ['Narrative
1','Narrative 2']);
ERROR:  cannot handle whole-row reference

Since I'm targetting PG 8, that is not a serious problem, but testers
need to be aware of it.
