A clean reinstall of Xcode, while time-consuming, is normally safe (at
least in my experience).  If you run
"/Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools" before reinstalling Xcode,
that helps to make sure that you've deleted any files from old versions.

That was encoded when you built fink on Snow Leopard (which has
/usr/bin/perl5.10.0; Apple decided to "improve" things by removing the
third number), and is part of the reason that we don't support
upgrading in place from 10.6 to 10.7.

And that's what fink uses.

rebooting won't do anything here, because it's a build error, not a
runtime error which might depend on a program in memory.

As it should if you're not finding the root cause.

The programs from the old fink still run, so I guess I will just live
with what I have until things stop working.  Maybe someone else will
find the problem.  I definite did not tinker with the system.

Since the prior instances of this sort of problem involved malloc.h,
let's start there.  Is the output from the command below the same on
your machine?

$ find /usr/include -name malloc.h | xargs ls -l
- -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 13706 Jul 31 22:19 /usr/include/malloc/malloc.h
- -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel  1067 Jul 31 22:19 /usr/include/objc/malloc.h
- -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel  3696 Aug  9 23:49 /usr/include/sys/malloc.h
