What package? tetex-texmf, texlive-texmf, or ptex-texmf ? I'm assuming
tetex-texmf, but it's always best to provide the literal Fink package name.

Fink's gcc version isn't very relevant here, because most packages don't
use it.

"archived" status is absolutely irrelevant to anything. Those are
packages that are built on your system but not installed, i.e. archived.
They bear no role on the current state of things.
The fact that you have different contents in those directories isn't
necessarily surprising, and is independent of the architecture. Their
contents are generated at runtime. For example, I have
dpkg -S /sw/var/lib/texmf/fonts
texlive-base: /sw/var/lib/texmf/fonts
$ ls /sw/var/lib/texmf/fonts
map pk
on my 10.5.9/Intel machine. You might try running
sudo updmap-sys
and see if that generates the missing content.
