Hmm, those symbols are defined in the main Postgres executable, so
there's no shared library to rely on. Anyway, for the memory allocation
stuff, you should be able to
#define palloc(a) malloc(a)
#define pfree(a) free(a)
and define AllocSetContextCreate() and other MemoryContext calls defined
as no-ops. It will leak memory like crazy, but for a short-lived
program I don't think it's a problem.
list.c you'll have to take from src/backend/nodes/list.c, I don't think
it should be too difficult.
