Got an alloy post out of a steel frame by cutting the top off and gently peeling it from the inside with a wooden mallet and screwdriver, plus a little WD40. Took about two hours.
Impossible to tell whether several days soaking in diesel prior made much difference, but I'm inclined to think it didn't.
