There are three issues here:
1) There appear to have been changes in both 10.4 and 10.5 that make
our tetex-3.0-1001 not work properly. 3.0-1002 fixes this.
2) The doxygen package in the binary distribution, which many packages
have build dependencies on to build their documentation, has a build
dependency on tetex to build its own documentation. This has been
changed in the current source distribution version of doxygen.
3) sbcl doesn't have a binary version for anything but 10.4/powerpc, as
noted at
http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/sbcl
The solution to all three issues is to use the source distribution,
which requires an appropriate version of Xcode (since you didn't specify
your platform I can't tell you what version to use) and can be enabled
via either
fink selfupdate-cvs
or
fink selfupdate-rsync
