During PatchScript:, copy the header to %b/mach/i386 . Then use the PatchFile (or PatchScript via perl or sed if its an simple fix) to modify the header to whatever solves your compilation problems. Finally, change your compiler flags (CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, or whatever), so that -I%b is in front of -I/usr/include. You'll probably either need to use some SetENVVAR field[2] or modify Makefile.in to change flag ordering so that the compiler sees your modified header instead of the system header. Look at http://www.finkproject.org/doc/packaging/format.php?phpLang=en if you're not clear what %b is and http://www.finkproject.org/doc/packaging/reference.php?phpLang=en for using the SetENVVAR fields.
