there is a fairly clean solution, that could be hard coded in fink for now, is:

fink build xfree86 && fink scanpackages && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xfree86

apt is able to install xfree 4.3 over the 4.2 packages because it is smart enough to know to override dpkg because the new packages fulfill the dependancies.
