from $PSQL_DOC_SOMEWHERE_THERE/install-procedure.html (for 7.1.3):

===
Client-only installation. If you want to install only the client
applications and interface libraries, then you can use these commands:

gmake -C src/bin install
gmake -C src/interfaces install
gmake -C doc install

To undo the installation use the command gmake uninstall. However,
this will not remove the Perl and Python interfaces and it will not
remove any directories.
===

so it looks like you would have to compile the whole thing, then install
just what you need.
