I don't know of any commonly used linkers that link at granularity finer
than one source file, and in any case for shared libraries the library
is all-or-nothing.
Grep shows that 7.4 psql does reference is_absolute_path, and 7.4
pg_dumpall does reference last_path_separator, so at least three of the
four are at issue.
