Since it is unclear how many fink developers are testing Lion but
not subscribed to fink-seeding, I wanted to point out the proposed patch
at 
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3314492&group_id=17203&atid=317203.
This patch for fink cvs contains the following changes...

1) For 10.7 and later, only the x86_64 distibution is supported.
2) The bootstrap aborts in the absence of an installed Java SDK and
   ask the user to retry the bootstrap after installing it.
3) The path-prefix-clang symlink directory is created on 10.7 and
   later so that the cc/gcc compilers are symlinked to clang and c++/g++
   are symlinked to clang++ via a compiler wrapper.

Note that this patch requires the 2011 WWDC Xcode 4.1 release to avoid
http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=9862. Be aware that clang is more
strict on language compliance issues but these are easily fixed and often
immediately solved with a quick google search (eq main can't return an
unsigned int, etc).

ps I originally had implemented a UseClang fink.conf parameter but the
consensus seems to be that fink should build in a uniform manner on all
10.7+ machines so the compiler is defaulted to clang instead.
