Here's what's available in 10.4-transitional/unstable:

$ fink list xine
Information about 5303 packages read in 6 seconds.
 i   amarok-kde-gstreamer-xine  1.3.8-21             KDE - music player
     amarok-kde-xine            1.3.8-21             KDE - music player
     gxine                      0.4.1-11             Xine video
player, user interface (GNOME)
     libxine                    1-rc5-27             Xine video/media
player library
     libxine-docs               1-rc5-27             Xine video/media
player library
     libxine-shlibs             1-rc5-27             Xine video/media
player library
     libxine1                   1.0.1-10             Xine video/media
player library
     libxine1-shlibs            1.0.1-10             Xine video/media
player library

Maybe gstreamer could be refactored to use the xine libraries
currently available.

(Bottom line--don't trust anything Fink-related in what upstream sites say)

Such a method exists in the prerelease code for fink-0.25.

In addition, you could just use Terminal.app with the windows set for
infinite scrollback and do "fink rebuild gstteamer".

There are, of course, other options.
