Hmm..I didn't think that they ever updated it, but maybe they did.
Try installing the

Try doing "fink-virtual-pkgs --debug" again, and paste back the -top-
of the output--all of the files that are being checked.  It's possible
that you're missing a file from X11User.pkg that doesn't cause a
runtime problem.

I didn't think Apple typically updated the X11SDK with newer XCode
verisions but maybe they did.  You'd need to try an X11SDK from a
newer XCode than what came on your machine, like that from XCode 1.5.
