This is handled if you install the X11 for Mac OS X SDK; the SDK is listed as a requirement in Fink's FAQ. See:

No it isn't.

Apple's X11 is improperly linked (already a known issue -- but still broken in the current beta). Libraries have an install_name that points to the *full* name of the file, instead of the compatibility name (ie, libX11.6.2.dylib instead of libX11.6.dylib) so when libX11 changes to 6.3, any libraries or binaries that linked against the old version will break.

This script edits the libraries so that they have a correct install_name.
