You are hitting a bug in fink with Xcode 5 that will hopefully be fixed 
soon in a new release of fink.

If you want to bootstrap now, you can work around the bug by editing (in 
the fink-0.35.1 directory) the two files bootstrap and 
perlmod/Fink/Bootstrap.pm:

In boostrap, change the line 339                
   $max_xcode="4.9";
to
   $max_xcode="5.0";

In perlmod/Fink/Bootstrap.pm, change the line
   if (-x '/usr/bin/gcc') {
to
   if (-x '/usr/bin/doesnotexist') {

Note that these are temporary hacks to get bootstrapping under way. The 
real fix will look different,

Don't follow any advice that was given for similar problems with earlier 
versions of Xcode. Anyway, you shouldn't change *anything* in /usr/bin; 
the other posts were meant as first aid for those who already had 
changed something there earlier.

Since you already had /usr/bin/gcc, this command should not have done 
anything. For the other one,

I would advise to undo it and remove the symlink.
