Hmm. Your data matches mine except for several spots where words are run
together:

I suppose that this is just a cut-and-paste issue but you should double
check it.

Yes, the complaint is about something wrong with the stored form of the
view rule for pg_user.

I'm starting to wonder about compiler bugs breaking the code in read.c
and readfuncs.c. If so, it's entirely likely that initdb wouldn't fix
it (and more than likely would fail halfway through :-()

If you want, you can try building with --enable-debug and getting a gdb
traceback from the call to errfinish(). That would at least give us
some clue where in the rule text it's getting confused.
