I see in the generated file:
sqVirtualMachine.h
sqConfig.h
sqPlatformSpecific.h
sqMemoryAccess.h

I had another look around and found this,
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/wiki/BuildingAVMOnPharo which has a link
to the squeak source SVN. I checked that out and it certainly has all
the header files. I still don't know about the libraries. It only talks
about building the VM, not a plugin. I don't remember having to jump
through any hoops before so I must be missing something. It's another
step forward though.
