I've been using it this way since Tiger, and haven't had any problems, mainly because MacPorts is my primary, and Fink is only a backup when something is missing or out of date in MacPorts (e.g., Re-Alpine). Also, the PATH, MANPATH, and INFOPATH to MacPorts comes before Fink, which I read as advice somewhere a long time ago, and that seems to allow it to work. I imagine if I was using Fink more heavily then I might run into a conflict, but I'm not, so I haven't.
