Thanks,
TL;DR: if upgrading from 10.6 or 10.7, you probably need to install XQuartz 2.7.4. Bootstrapping with Futureproof2.zip (dated 2013-10-24 19:43 UTC) basically worked, with one hitch. This is a 10.6 box that was upgraded to 10.9. I had installed the Xcode command line tools from the GUI after installing Mavericks, but decided to do the Fink reinstall over SSH. Early in the bootstrap process (didn't catch the exact message before it scrolled off the screen) it said "scanning for packages" or something, and hung there (no CPU usage by ./bootstrap). Turns out there was a GUI message asking me if I wanted to download XQuartz. Once I dismissed the message, the bootstrap process continued. There were a few warnings about not being able to get the XFree86 version, but things seem to work now: $ fink list x11 Scanning package description files..........
