Here's what I have:

$ ls -l /usr/bin/gcc*
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel      7 2008-12-12 09:43 /usr/bin/gcc -> gcc-4.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel  93088 2008-09-26 02:44 /usr/bin/gcc-4.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 105680 2008-10-01 00:56 /usr/bin/gcc-4.2

This is the default configuration from Xcode 3.1.2.

As you said, gcc_select doesn't work on Leopard anymore; and the error
message ought to be fixed accordingly.

Did _you_ modify what "gcc" points to?  Fink isn't set up to account for
local modifications in the system area. 

(Although...I'm not sure if fink couldn't be made to look for
/usr/bin/gcc-4.0 instead.)
