It is working fine for me (RH9). Can you provide more details? Platform? 
How you are calling initdb?

Tried now: 4 of 93 tests failed.
.. initdb does not fault though ;)

It seems that the build system is missing something

If you aren't using configure --enable-depend, you should count on doing
at least "make clean", preferably "make distclean" anytime you do a CVS
update.  The default behavior is not to spend any cycles on tracking
header-file dependencies.
