I wonder what share of retirement funds allow bitcoin exposure in any form

Some of the largest retirement funds are by Blackrock, which have 1-5% exposure through IBIT.
Most funds have either direct exposure through Bitcoin ETFs or indirect exposure through MSTR allocation, or by its inclusion in index funds like the Nasdaq 100, QQQ.

There are still a lot of pension funds that don't allow individual allocations, right?

I think that's what pension funds do...manage the account for the beneficiaries, who themselves don't have any individual control over the funds.
I remember there was a podcast called Blue Collar Bitcoin. Two firefighters that were into bitcoin, and one of their big goals was to get the firefighters pension fund to buy bitcoin.

Traditionally, that's right, but it's become a more broadly used term.
Some defined contribution plans that allow personal control over allocations are also referred to as pensions.
