In short, I think Aaron's problem with fink and X11 is quite common.
Polite understatement :-)
Maybe the most idiot-proof means of dealing with this is for fink to test for the presence of Apple's X11 first, perhaps by looking for the X11.app in /Applications/Utilities or the package receipt(s), and then if that is found look for the header files, and if those are missing, quit with a warning that the user must manually (re)install the X11SDK before continuing.
Well, if you have an idea about how this could be implemented, in particular at what moment fink should do this test, everybody would be happy to discuss this, maybe on fink-devel where such a discussion is already going on. So far, all ideas have turned out to pose problems.
