Well, I don't know about any special C headers. The examples in the
documentation tell you what you need for various features. However, I
think the most important header would be fmgr.h since that is how the C
functions get arguments from and return data to the server. With a few
declarations for things like palloc you should be able to do most
things.

Have a nice day,
