That seems to provide the minimum amount of fuss here. We've got another problem, though. The imake executable from xmkmf really needs to know where the build tools are at runtime. Our llvm-gcc virtual package will account for the presence or absence of /usr/bin/llvm-*. In principle we could use a Depends: llvm-gcc | llvm-gcc42 to make sure that people with fresh Xcode 5 installs will have %p/bin/llvm-*, and people who currently have /usr/bin/llvm-* won't be forced to install llvm-gcc42. Unfortunately, the llvm-gcc virtual package is BuildDependsOnly (my bad there, I'm afraid). Since we just released a new fink, we could in principle let xmkmf fail validation for now, pending the next fink release. Thoughts?
