If the value you want to change can be set as a parameter for the configure
script (e.g. "./configure --with-ssl"), then you can modify the .info file
accordingly, and "fink install" will work as usual

If you actually have to modify the source itself, life is trickier.  You'd
actually have to modify it, then repackage the archive into a tarball.
