oops. already done. oh well.

Thanks for the explanation.

option (1) is a pain for 10.7/8 because it means dependence on fink's gcc.
option (2) is not straight forward, because a fink package needs a fixed base of source code. Although it means some extra works, this seems the way to go, though. A brief check of the git commits revealed that the number of commits is rather large and it is probably best to base the fink package on a distinct commit. I will try that in the next days.
