I had the same proiblems and could not figure it out. After I got a new 
computer and reinstalled fink, it still happened. It took a rebuild of 
gdk-pixbuf and gdk-pixbuf-shlibs to fix it. the problem was 
/sw/lib/gdk-pixbuf/loaders/libpixbufloader-png.so and it's links were 
missing. I think this is a known problem where they are not installed 
correctly if they are not already there, or something.

if you do startx -- -quartz, then all error messages will be routed to 
that termnial window and you can see what is going wrong.
