CREATE TYPE 

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/interactive/sql-createtype.html

Since you have a known set of columns you define a custom type that matches
the structure and then:

SELECT fk_item_header_id, json_agg(  ( message_id, dt_create, ...
)::custom_type  ) FROM ...;

Not tested as I do not have a JSON capable release available at the moment. 
But since the type information includes the column names the conversion to
JSON should keep those names intact.
