I made some debugging progress.

On 10.7 I get:

$ dscl . -read  /Users/fink-bld gid
dsAttrTypeNative:gid: 280
Alexanders-MacBook-Pro:my_fink hansen$ id fink-bld
uid=4294967294(fink-bld) gid=4294967294(nobody)
groups=4294967294(nobody),402(com.apple.sharepoint.group.1),403(com.apple.sharepoint.group.2),12(everyone),61(localaccounts)

On 10.6, on the other hand, from an absolutely identical fink checkout:
$ id fink-bld
uid=280(fink-bld) gid=280(fink-bld)
groups=280(fink-bld),101(com.apple.sharepoint.group.1),61(localaccounts),12(everyone),102(com.apple.sharepoint.group.2)

I'm not sure why it's being balky on 10.7.
