I do the same thing, and in psql:

postgres=> select bool2int(1=1);
assertion "u.hdr.e_phentsize == sizeof(Elf_Phdr)" failed: file
"/usr/src/libexec/rtld-elf/map_object.c", line 118
pqReadData() -- backend closed the channel unexpectedly.
This probably means the backend terminated abnormally before or while
processing the request.
We have lost the connection to the backend, so further processing is
impossible. Terminating.

to create the shared lib:

gcc -I../include -I../backend -O2 -m486 -pipe -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
-I../interfaces/libpq -I../../include -c bool2int.c -o bool2int.o
bool2int.c:6: warning: no previous prototype for `bool2int'
ld -x -r -o bool2int.o.obj bool2int.o
building shared object bool2int.so
ranlib bool2int.so.pic
ld -x -Bshareable -o bool2int.so bool2int.so.pic

I use FreeBSD-3.1
PostgreSQL-6.4.2
