Well I know it isn't an API per say, but one interesting tid bit as an example
is that PLphp does not need the PostgreSQL source to compile. It only needs
pgxs and the relevant headers etc...

Perhaps that is one way to go... All PLs use pgxs?

We have already grown for hackers quite a bit this year as they mature I think
we will see even more patch review eyes and such... Soon.
