By default Fink makes an attempt to put its libraries at the head of
those to be built against and linked via LDFLAGS (and includes via
CPPFLAGS), but that doesn't work for every package.  There are a
plethora of other methods that get used.

Also, Apple's build tools essentially hardcode system-area paths (at
least /usr and /usr/local--I'm not sure about
/System/Library/Frameworks) to be at the beginning of the search, so it
often takes extra effort to avoid system versions in favor of Fink's.
