My understanding of the issue is that applications that were built against threaded XFree86 (e.g. the xfree86-threaded-* packages) broke when running on Apple X11.
Unfortunately, fink doesn't keep track of this--the packages don't have a way to tell whether they were built against a threaded or non-threaded X. It's more painful even than this: my understanding is that you can't even find a difference by looking at the binaries with otool. As for a list, I'm pretty sure that KDE applications suffer from this, but am not sure about others. -- Alexander K.
