Did you install the "X11 for Mac OS X SDK" package too? It's an option 
when installing the Developer Tools (XCode)

Fink asumes that it has to install a xfree86 system, and apparently 
this package requires gcc3.1. Fink should ask you which version of 
xfree86 it should install. Do not use the default but select 
"system-xfree86" which then uses Apple's X11.

As of 10.3 MacOSX uses bash as default shell. (10.0 - 10.2.x used tcsh)
