Sorry, misremembered the problem somewhat. The problem is that code that includes postgres.h atm ends up with ExceptionalCondition() et al. declared even if FRONTEND is defined. So if anything uses an assert you need to provide wrappers for those which seems nasty. If they are provided centrally and check for FRONTEND that problem doesn't exist.
