The problem is that bugs are rarely adhering to a standard that would 
allow an automatic treatment (otherwise they would probably not be 
there.) You case is a good example for this.

It is not fink that is speaking here, but gcc. So what would you think 
is "the right place" this should be sent to, Fink or gnu? And what would 
"all the info for a bug report" be?

Seeing that the bug seems to appear randomly, (a fact that an automated 
bug reporting system would probably have hidden), my wild guess is that 
you either have a shell startup script that sets a too small stacksize 
limit, or you have a hardware (perhaps memory) problem.
