Hmm. I've been building in the same kind of environment (7.0.2 RPMs
installed; cvs snapshot in my home directory) and do not see this
symptom. I did a "make distclean" this evening so had a fairly fresh
start.

btw, I had to blow away all of my installation area to get things to
initdb this evening. Not sure what was not getting
replaced/updated/removed by the normal installation process, but
whatever it was led to core dumps when building the template database.
