Yeah, I can't think of any simple way of distinguishing the 2 error
conditions in that code. Perhaps adding a suitable hint would help, as
well as re-wording the error message:
ERROR: deferrable constraint "foo" does not exist
HINT: You must specify the name of a constraint declared with the
DEFERRABLE option.
