Yep, I'd call it a bug.
I Ctrl-C'd out of the setup and reran "apt-get install
x-window-system" to get back to the start of configuring X, and this
time told it to not manage X with debconf. The installation completed
(of course leaving things broken).
Then I ran "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86", and this time when it
asked for the PCI bus identifier, instead of entering
PCI:0:16:0
like the default, i entered
PCI:00:16:00
which worked.
Go figure.

In the upgrade from potato to woody the Dialog window specifies
PCI:nn:nn:nn

Yeah; IIRC the explanatory text in the screen had it in the PCI:xx:xx:xx
format, but the default provided had PCI:0:16:0, and the explanatory
text said to leave it alone unless it didn't work (or you knew it was
wrong). Granted, a minor bug, but a bug nonetheless. When I ran
dpkg-reconfigure, the default was left blank, so I didn't have a faulty
default to "confuse" me and thus I typed it in the proper format. Since
I'm pulling from Sid, and you had no problem with Woody, I reckon the
problem is in Sid ("and that's why they call it . . . all together
everyone . . . UNSTABLE! Woo-hoo, yea! whee-ee!")
