I'd be surprised if all the gnome-1 dependencies needed for gnucash
1.8.11 will ever work on an Intel Mac.
The good news is that gnucash 2.0 is almost real (if you were really
optimistic, maybe only 3 weeks away, but in software, such optimism
is rarely warranted). After that it will take a little while for the
fink package to make an appearance.
Since I don't have an Intel Mac, I can't say for certain, but it
should be a lot more likely that gnome-2 pieces can at least be fixed
to work on the Intel architecture.
FWIW, gnucash 1.9.x works pretty well on fink supplied dependencies
on a G5 system. OFX Direct Connect is also very close to really
working well (but we need a new release of libofx before all the
current capabilities can be packaged).
Sorry to sound like a shill, but I think gnucash 2 will be out sooner
than you could fix all the gnome-1/MacIntel issues.

Yeah, I know. Unstable. I'm running on an iMacIntel and I receive
the following error message:
GnuCash startup windows appear and then I receive the GnuCash error
message: GuppiPlugInSpec (process 1130) has crashed due to a fatal
error (Bus error)
Background:
1a)The error that comes from a 'clean' install is simply 'Bus
error' at the command line. After practicing stable software
installations, I uninstalled/reinstalled fink and loaded only the
first presented option for GnuCash dependent packages.
1b) Out of idle curiosity, I tried to load the fink version of
OpenOffice. The installation failed but I got the more detailed
GnuCash error message mention above.
2) I bought the iMacIntel last weekend and I'm trying to bring over
my 'mission critical' applications from my dying SuSE laptop. The
number one application I want to bring over is GnuCash. Yes, a
'free' copy of Quicken came with the iMacIntel. The online
information transfer format (QFX) in Mac Quicken is not selectable
because Quicken is trying to force my bank to pay 'support' costs.
A pox on both their houses but I'm most annoyed with Quicken.
Help.
