There probably should be an entry, but I think we're going to change
this dependency around to something more user-intelligible...

$ fink desc cctools

cctools-622-1: [virtual package representing the developer tools]
 This package represents the C/C++/ObjC developer tools
 provided by Apple.  If it does not show as installed,
 you can download it from Apple at:
 .
   http://connect.apple.com/
 .
 (free registration required)
 .
 Web site: http://www.finkproject.org/faq/usage-general.php#virtpackage

Specifically, cctools 622 corresponds to Xcode 2.4.1, so you're missing some or 
all of the Xcode install on that box.  "fink-virtual-pkgs --debug" may help you 
see what's lacking.

(by the way, installing gcc42 wouldn't have helped you, because Fink is set up 
_not_ to use anything but Xcode for compiling)
