As an update, I found out what the issue is:

/var/lib/postgresql/8.1/main/postmaster.opts

Overrides the options in /etc/postgresql/8.1/main/postgresql.conf - including the data_directory directive. Would have been nice to see that in the documentation instead of having to trip over it after a bit of head scratching.

By default, it contains this information:

/usr/lib/postgresql/8.1/bin/postgres -D /var/lib/postgresql/8.1/main -c config_file=/etc/postgresql/8.1/main/postgresql.conf
