The direct analog would be to

install libevent1 and openssl098
get the tor src
CPPFLAGS="-I/sw/include" LDFLAGS="-L/sw/lib" ./configure
and then as above

Or maybe you could talk to fink's tor maintainer about updating the
package to whatever source version the article wants, if it's not there
already (since you didn't provide a URL for context I have no clue
whether it's a real version, which we can use easily, or a checkout from
a repository, which requires more effort), and then you could just
enable the unstable tree and run a selfupdate (if that hasn't been done
already) and do

fink install tor
sudo cp /sw/bin/tor /Applications/Vidalia.app/Contents/MacOS/tor

(or, better yet, make that a symbolic link so that it will be updated
whenever tor gets updated)
