Well, I haven't read your code yet (but I will;-); but you could use pseudo packages (created from the db) and use libalpm functions, for example, alpm_checkdeps for dependency checking and _alpm_pkg_update_requiredby (and then a comparison with the db) for requiredby testing; and this would be independent from libalpm version.
Do you mean the same pseudo target code that was removed : http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2007-July/008911.html ? Or the the same idea but implemented differently ?
