Well, CVS is now working here now, but I'm still getting:

ERROR:  pg_atoi: error in "f": can't parse "f"
ERROR:  pg_atoi: error in "f": can't parse "f"

when running initdb. Heres some more details (from --debug):

> creating bootstrap relation
bootstrap relation created ok

tuple 1242<Inserting value: 'boolin'
Typ == NULL, typeindex = 3 idx = 0
boolin End InsertValue
Inserting value: '11'
Typ == NULL, typeindex = 10 idx = 1
11 End InsertValue
Inserting value: 'f'
Typ == NULL, typeindex = 10 idx = 2
