You can link whatever your need into the library you create to be 
dynamically loaded. We have functions that use std::* and use Boost 
which is all C++ templates.

You have to start with some thing C code to handle the interface with 
plpgsql can create the library interface that postgresql calls but that 
can then call C++ functions. Look at the bi-directional code for an example.
