I just have realized that you use the wrong parameter: You are
pointing to the crafty binary instead it's directory. Well, RTFM. :-)
>From "man xboard":
To use Crafty with XBoard, give the -fcp and -fd options
as follows, where crafty's-directory is the directory in
which you installed Crafty and placed its book and other
support files.
xboard -fcp crafty -fd crafty's-directory
Therefore you need to use with a standard fink installation:
xboard -fcp crafty -fd /sw/lib/crafty

This will work.
