Is it possible to configure a boolean to output 1/0 rather than t/f by
default?

I don't know for sure, but there are several functions in pg_proc, not listed by \df. They (I beleive) cover these
functions. For example, there are two functions:

Result data type | Name | Argument data types
-----------------------------+------------------------+---------------------
boolean | boolin |
integer | boolout |

I don't know what they do however. Maybe you can look at the code?
