fink info gdal

The different packages refer to different options being compiled in.

Presumably some other package needs it as a dependency.  I'll assume
you're on 10.6/x86_64, since you didn't say, because that's the only
supported configuration where xerces-c-dev is absent.

The answer is that you _shouldn't_ have seen gdal, nor any package that
depends on it, since xerces-c-dev is nonexistent on 10.6/x86_64.
