Jim,

It is sort of possible in 7.2, as a function can return a cursor to an
interface language capable of handling cursors. However, implementation is
quite cumbersome, and I won't try to detail it here, particularly since that
language and method have been obsolesced and would force you to re-write your
code when you do upgrade.
If this feature is important to you, I strongly recommend that you upgrade to
7.3.1 now.
