Comment(by jatorre):

 Actually to me is a critical bug. Without PostGIS honoring PostgreSQL time
 outs, the database become quite sensitive. In some of our tests actually
 we could only take back PostgreSQL after a full restart when a nasty non
 interruptable function gets to spin. Somehow even PostgreSQL should even
 fire a warning alerting that a function is not behaving taken more time
 that what the system has give to him.

 So, I vote to have it as 2.0.1 and ensure that in future functions we can
 warranty that our functions are interruptable.
