Well, one could write a flag "--ignore-pm" that would simply direct fink not to check for the presence of a -pm type package. The fink program would then assume that the user had already resolved the dependency before hand. The system-perl package would make this "ignore-pm" flag the default.The rest of the suggestions in this thread are welcome, but I still think we need to consider that fink is likely to be used by power-compilers like me as well as naive compilers that simply want access to cool Unix binaries for OSX.
Since all of the packages currently bear the "Type:perl" designation, this shouldn't be too difficult to implement :)
