Here's the issue: if you start initdb from a directory other than PGBASE, you 
can run into trouble:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/pg80b/bin> ./initdb -D ../data
initdb: file "/usr/local/pg80b/bin/share/postgresql/postgres.bki" does not 
exist
This means you have a corrupted installation or identified
the wrong directory with the invocation option -L.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/pg80b/bin>

I don't recall having this issue with 7.4.
