That ancient version of ld doesn't understand version scripts of the
syntax used today.  You could figure out what syntax it does understand
and then tweak src/interfaces/libpq/Makefile to generate the right thing.
Or you could just rip out this whole conditional section and not bother
with restricting symbol visibility:

ifeq ($(PORTNAME), linux)
$(shlib): exports.list

exports.list: exports.txt
        echo '{ global:' >$@
        $(AWK) '/^[^#]/ {printf "%s;\n",$$1}' $< >>$@
        echo ' local: *; };' >>$@

exported_symbols_list = -Wl,--version-script=exports.list
endif

I'm a bit curious though why you want to run a modern version of
Postgres on such an ancient platform ... newer Linuxen are a *whole*
lot better than AS2.1.
