To clarify,
I installed Apple's Xcode libraries, which I believe contain perl.
The only perl executable on my system is /usr/bin/perl, which I believe to
be Apple's (I don't have a perl executable under /sw/..., i.e. `find /sw
-type f -name perl` returns nothing).
I have the /sw paths configured first in my PATH.

Hello,
No, I haven't installed anything Perl related via means other than Fink.

I've seen the related FAQ question Q6.20, so to respond to suggestions:

An attempt to install intltool package fails, complaining that
xml-sax-pm586
is not installed.

I have system-perl 5.8.6-1 installed, and am trying to install the
matching
package xml-sax-pm586.
Well, this isn't exactly applicable to your situation, anyway. The
installation complaining because the binary install tools see that
xml-sax-pm586 is in an incomplete installation state.
Versions:
- Binary installation of Fink, version: 0.24.17
That's out of date, by the way, but I don't think it's related to your
problem (and will require actually fixing what's going on here).
- Mac OS X version: 10.4.7

It works here. The first question that I'll ask is whether you've
installed any Perl stuff via means other than Fink.
