The error was:

My best guess is that 
/sw/fink/debs/git-remote-testsvn_2.6.0-1+10.7_darwin-x86_64.deb was a dangling 
symlink before you updated, and that made cp unhappy.   We’ll probably either 
need to permit failures in cp for the update or skip cases when the symlinks 
don’t resolve.  

As a workaround, try using “fink reinstall fink”.  The .deb copy operation will 
be skipped if even one .deb in /sw/fink/debs is non-dangling so you won’t 
trigger the .deb copy operation.  If you want, you can then manually copy the 
.debs from /sw/fink/10.7 over to /sw/fink/10.9-libcxx which got missed due to 
the failure above so that your /sw/fink/debs symlinks will (mostly) resolve.
