Only if you have been manipulating your X11 setup, or have updated your
Fink tree from 10.5 having built packages against Xquartz-2.4.0 or later
there.
I show the following for 10.6:

$ otool -L /usr/X11/lib/libX11.dylib
/usr/X11/lib/libX11.dylib:
        /usr/X11/lib/libX11.6.dylib (compatibility version 9.0.0, current
version 9.0.0)

- -L /usr/X11/lib/libfreetype.dylib
/usr/X11/lib/libfreetype.dylib:
        /usr/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version 10.0.0, current
version 10.20.0)

Though we probably should make nedit use Fink's freetype instead of X11's.

<snip>

The way to handle such issues from within a Fink setup is to rebuild
your X11-using packages to make sure that they know about the correct
libraries.
