Do you still have the failure after doing "make install"? If so, it's
news to me.

If not, it's a known problem I want to fix before the beta freeze. The
basic problem here is I'm using following statement while doing
initdb:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION utf8_to_iso8859_1 (INTEGER, INTEGER,
OPAQUE, OPAQUE, INTEGER) RETURNS INTEGER AS
'$libdir/utf8_and_iso8859_1', 'utf8_to_iso8859_1' LANGUAGE 'c';

The $libdir variable is defined at the compile time and it points to
$prefix/lib. Apparently it points to different place while doing
regression tests. One idea is replacing $lindir with the absolute path
to $prefix/lib. However I wonder this would break some installations,
for example RPM.

Any idea?

You can replace the string '$libdir' in the conversions_create.sql file
with an absolute directory name during the standalone regression test run.
This could be done in the regression test driver, where the correct path
is available as $pkglibdir.  Other, less messy solutions don't occur to me
offhand.

The RPM's patch the regression tests to work -- in a somewhat broken way, but 
enough to get useful results.  IIRC, I'm already subbing $libdir out in them.
