This issue has been reported before, but I haven't been able to trigger 
it on my own machines yet.

What method are you using to give fink root access?  su? 'su -'? sudo 
with extra flags?  If you can let us know if you did anything special 
before the "fink install" command that might help us isolate the problem 
more easily.

As a workaround, you can use "fink --no-build-as-nobody "
