OK, I go back and install XCodeTools the RIGHT way (the .mpkg file...live and learn).
I searched and searched Apple's install disks, couldn't find the Apple X11 stuff at all (and I really, really looked)
It's supposed to be on the Panther media somewhere, but you can download the runtime package:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/x11formacosx.html
The development headers are part of XCode for some perverse reason.
, so i go BACK to Fink, and re-initiate the xfree86-4.3.0 install and it works! As in machine compiled code for an hour or so (kept the window open to try and cool the box).
On completion, a new icon appears in Applications, 'XDarwin. It's creation date is today...hmmm. I click on it, and:
2005-01-18 08:32:10.207 XDarwin[11691] No Info.plist file in application bundle or no NSPrincipalClass in the Info.plist file, exiting
It won't launch.
The XDarwin app; what is it's launch-failure warning telling me, and what stone may I have left unturned here? I feel I am SO CLOSE to regaining use of X, and hence Gimp.....

Ummm...XFree86-4.3 was broken on Panther and was pulled a while ago from the 10.3 distribution of Fink. You can get a later version from the binary distribution now, too.
What version of Fink are you running?
