after installing pgsql-6.5 ( on a machine with pgsql-6.4.2 installed and
running ), initdb creates a PG_VERSION file that still reports 6.4;
subsequent psql connections fail to connect, complaining about "no
compatible version of postgres found".

before you ask:
yes, ive made sure that im using 6.5's initdb.
yes, ive made sure that initdb is looking in the 6.5 dir for its template.
yes, its writing to a 6.5 dir.

so, errr, what gives?
