For me it looks like you have interchanged some steps. Take a closer look at your listing. You have upgraded and installed the X11 1.0 then the Dev.Tools and X11 SDK and afterwards you *remove* the Xfree86!!! If you remove the Xfree86 X11 then you may remove Apples X11 as well. And how should fink then find a X11 when you want to start one. In order to get the right order, you now may remove system-xfree86 or whatever fink installed when you did a fink selfupdate. Reinstall X11 and X11 SDK and take a closer look at the Dev.Tools up to December 2002 Dev.tools the support for the BSD Subsystem wasn't activated by Default. Since I donnot have Panther I don't know if Apple has changed this but I guees not if I read some postings on webpages correctly. So you may reinstall parts of the Dev.Tools as well. Build fink from source as described on the fink webpage. Do a fink selfupdate-rysinc X should start now. And by the way you are using version 0.6.0 of fink?
