Actually, it should take the one installed beside initdb in the
temporary installation's bin directory.

Eyeballing the check in initdb, the only likely reason I can see
for rejecting the correct postgres executable is if it's not putting
out the exact same version string that initdb expects.  You might try
running the temp installation's postgres with -V to see what it prints.
