To share what worked for me: Since the crash happened in two different places and never occurred while I was using the computer at the same time but after I went away to do other things, I was suspicious about whether the system might be going to sleep during the build. I had to do a clean install of Jag on my new hard drive after a head crash on the old one. So the setup wasn't my old comfortable one (yet). In my System Prefs, I had sleep set to never (good), with a separate timing for display sleep. Sounds fine--*except* that I had missed noticing the check box to put the hard drive to sleep whenever possible. Unchecked that, started a third try to build fink, went to bed, and voila: "You should now have a working Fink installation in '/sw'." Thanks for everyone's suggestions and for putting up with my ramblings. Hopefully this tidbit of knowledge will be useful to someone else.
