This is entirely possible regarding the fink installation. I did build ctags myself from source and the default compiler was used (i.e. /usr/bin/gcc). This is why I reported the bug to the developer first: the errors from my build matched those found in the fink installation. I'm not deeply familiar with the differences between clang, llvm, gcc or how the fink packages are built. I just hoped to shed light on a particularly murky bug.
