Joe,

One of the principles of fink is that packages compiled by fink should
compile the same everywhere, so that dependency checking is reliable,
and people can freely mix binary and source versions of packages.

For this reason, fink deliberately resets the user's environment variables
like CFLAGS, to guard against accidentally setting them to bad values.
And indeed, although changing the optimization works for some packages,
it would break other packages.

The only way to get fink to use different CFLAGS is to edit the fink .info
file and change things there.  Consult the packaging manual for details;
in brief, though, the command "SetCFLAGS" is the one you probably want
to use.

You might also write to the package maintainer and suggest that a different
optimization be used for this package.
