But then I wonder if there is any connection between the word "pale"
meaning "post" and its modern meaning (as in "A Whiter Shade of Pale").

Wictionary asserts an etymology hypothesis for "beyond the pale"
having the pole interpretation:

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/beyond_the_pale

Etymonoline pegs "pale" (white) as being of Latin oriigin ("pallidus")
and "pale" (stick, pole) of Latin origian also ("palus"):

https://www.etymonline.com/word/pale

From that we have words like "impale" and "pallid".
