Sorry if this was cryptic.

 * "This is very wrong" because using fink is likely to cause problems such as building an unloadable extension module, and fink is widely hated (not by me), and it should not be the default behavior.
 * It "usually has no effect" because fink is usually not installed.
 * "If any users complain" then we should tell them if they want builds of Python packages to use fink include dirs and lib dirs then they should edit their user or system distutils config file and specify the include_dirs and library_dirs options in the [build_ext] section.
