I keep getting this:

pg_regress: initdb failed
Examine ./log/initdb.log for the reason.

rm regress.o
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/home/chriskl/pgsql/src/test/regress'
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/chriskl/pgsql/src/test'
-bash-2.05b$ more src/test/regress/log/initdb.log

PostgreSQL 7.
5devel
Check your installation or specify the correct path using the option -L.
-bash-2.05b$

I wiped the src/test dir, re cvs up'd and did gmake test again and it
still happens. What's going on?

Did you try a "make distclean"? I'm not sure that the makefiles have a
dependency from configure.in to postgres.bki, so the .bki file may not
have gotten rebuilt when the revision number went to 7.5devel. What is
the revision number at the front of the complained-of file, anyway?
