Well, as a temporary solution, I downloaded the most recent version (4.3.0)
and built it outside of fink.  Here is what I did:

setenv CFLAGS -no-cpp-precomp
setenv CPP 'gcc -E -no-cpp-precomp'
setenv CXXCPP 'g++ -E -no-cpp-precomp'
setenv CXXFLAGS -no-cpp-precomp
setenv LDFLAGS '-L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/sw/lib -bind_at_load'
setenv CPPFLAGS '-I/usr/X11R6/include -I/sw/include'
./configure --with-motif-libs=/sw/lib --with-motif-includes=/sw/include
--x-includes=/sw/include/ --x-libraries=/sw/lib/ --without-javadx
make
sudo make install

Note that I explicitly excluded the java stuff, because the confiugre
script tried to compile the java stuff otherwise (and bombed).  Other
packages, such as CDF, were excluded during the configuration process when
the appropriate files weren't found.

It's possible that some of the above is unneccessary or detrimental to the
build process, but I ended up with a functioning version of dx (installed
in /usr/local).  I'm completely unfamiliar with the fink package procedure,
but perhaps the above might be useful in putting together a package with
the current version.  I would certainly prefer that solution to using
/usr/local.  I would get rid of /usr/local altogether, but I still need it
for PETSc.  Thanks everyone for your help.
