Applied with a few small changes --- I renamed the GUC variables after a suggestion by Simon Riggs, and fixed things so that backend_load_libraries could actually do something useful (you had it as PGC_POSTMASTER, making it effectively no more flexible than the existing preload_libraries list).
'Doh! That was a cut/paste error on my part. Thanks.
The only change that will directly impact your code is that I thought it'd be better to provide plpgsql_exec_error_callback and exec_assign_expr as separate fields instead of arguments to func_setup, viz if (*plugin_ptr) { (*plugin_ptr)->error_callback = plpgsql_exec_error_callback; (*plugin_ptr)->assign_expr = exec_assign_expr; if ((*plugin_ptr)->func_setup) ((*plugin_ptr)->func_setup)(estate, func); } I'm not totally wedded to this if you don't like it, but my thought was that passing these as arguments to func_setup would mean a lot of pain anytime we wanted to change the set of function pointers provided: every plugin would need textual changes whether it actually used these functions or not.
Good idea, those two function pointers are sort of necessary-evil required only by the debugger plugin (other plugins presumably won't need them).

I added docs for the GUC variables but didn't do more than that. I think the code comments are probably sufficient as far as rendezvous variables and PLpgSQL_plugin go ... did you have something else in mind?
I'll look around the existing documentation to see if I can find an appropriate place, but we don't really have an implementor's guide.
Thanks for your help and suggestions.
