The only way this would be possible, i think is if fink used its own user to build things, a "fink" user. Then you would get a permissions error if something were installed outside %d.
BTW, it would be nice if fink build process warned installers that certain files were installed outside %d. Even projects which use autotools to build sometimes include their own (crude) installation scripts that may not recognize $(DESTDIR) .
When making packages, it is usually best for maintainers to build first *manually* replicating what fink does, substituting /tmp for %d. Then you will get permissions errors if something tries to go into /sw directly.
