Thanks for the detailed answer. Things are becoming clearer now. The following might get you out of this: Run
fink install fink-mirrors
This is supposed to work when fink-0.17.3-1 is installed, which is the case for you.
Afterwards, a new "fink selfupdate" should be able to fetch and install the other packages in the list.
