In that case, shouldn't we add to libpq-fe.h all the functions that
libpq is exporting?

Not really. For distributors it's nice because it means that they don't
need to recompile the entire software stack just because a new postgres
release enters the archive. But for run-of-the-mill users who compile
postgres themselves, they won't notice one way or the other.
Have a nice day,
