Some upstreams try to be "helpful" and detect Macports or Fink.  It
might have been via one of those packages.

I wonder if we could add something to fink that would detect

There is already a "fink-package-precedence" script (from the package
of the same name) which can be used in the CompileScript to scan
headers and libraries for e.g. /usr/local, or /usr/X11 where we don't
want it.  It doesn't work for every package, however.

It could be extended to check for /opt/local--the penalty being that
people who stick their Fink tree in /opt/local/fink or something like
that would need a bit of extra hacking.

Another potentially useful feature, now that I'm thinking about it,
would be also to scan any executables as to their linked library content.
