Excellent, no reinstall necessary.
1) Just for fun I went into Storable.pm and manually changed the
VERSION string to 2.13. Fink worked ok, but required me to update
my indexes, etc.
2) Obviously not a permanent solution, I thought to just replace my
2.16 version with an old 2.13 version and see what happens
3) Did a little googleing and found that this has been an issue
related to an OS upgrade -> http://www.tuesdaynight.org/2007/03/14/
fink-1049-boom.html
The solution appears to be to just do a 'force install Storable'
within CPAN. What's strange is that CPAN had reported that my
version of Storable was up to date. Well, fink works just fine now.
Thanks for the help, Alexander.
Cheers,
Andrew

Have you done any updates to the system-installed Perl stuff?
The error message suggests that your "fink" package was built
using a different Perl setup.
I completely wiped out any trace of the old Fink distribution and
installed this version from scratch. I'm really not sure why it's
saying "Storable object version 2.13 does not match
$Storable::VERSION 2.16"... a simple 'print Storable->VERSION;'
spits out 2.16.
Should I just reinstall Fink again? (Id like to avoid that if
possible)
I think the issue is what -fink- thinks the version of Storable
should be. So if you installed Fink from the binary installer,
then that fink was built on a machine with an earlier Storable.
I guess it's not coded to accept a later version of Storable.
You could try reinstalling Fink via bootstrap--this will give you a
fink package that knows about the version of Storable on _your_
system.
Follow the instructions on http://www.finkproject.org/download/
srcdist.php?phpLang=en , except don't use the tarball linked
there. Download a current one from
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/fink/fink-0.27.1.tar.gz?
modtime=1174310282&big_mirror=1
instead. Also, when you're done, you'll need to run "fink
selfupdate-rsync" or "fink selfupdate-cvs" to download the package
lists.
