This looks like a bug in Fink's virtual perl package: It "provides" 
html-tree-pm588, but as you report, Apple's perl-5.8.8 in Leopard does 
not really provide the corresponding contents (version 5.8.6 in Tiger did).

There is, however, also a "real" html-tree-pm588 package. Run

   fink install html-tree-pm588

and see if this helps.
