Yes, it wasn't immediately obvious how to do it. I first built
postgres as normal, including the pg_config tool, and then used that
to compile the test as follows:
gcc -O3 -g \
src/tools/testint128.c \
-I$(pg_config --includedir-server) \
-o src/tools/testint128 \
$(pg_config --libs)
It actually only needs -lpgcommon -lpgport -lm, but it seemed easier
just to include all of the pg_config --libs.
