Then start fixing pg_dump, psql, and every other bit of client-side code
that expects the boolean columns in the system catalogs to read out as
't'/'f' ...

I think you'd really need a separate type.  But have you considered
something simple like
        CREATE DOMAIN boolint AS int CHECK (value = 0 OR value = 1)
