You can't have part of a transaction cancelled without cancelling all of
it. The INSERT is part of the transaction.
If you really need to insert a record in a log table before rolling back
a transaction, you need to use dblink to do the insert in another
transaction.
Personally, I'd enable PostgreSQL's CSV logging and then process the log
files, so you can include your logging info in the Pg logs. Using
logging tables will be way more hassle than it's worth.
