What is up with fink not recognizing Apple's X11's libraries? Just about every GTK and QT app I've installed via dselect is erroring out with exit code 100 on congiuration because it can't find some dylibs. The system-XFree86 placeholder package also craps out with an error code 1 when dselect tries to install it. All of these programs work ok, if I go into an xterm and launch them they come up just fine, the .2.1 beta which I just installed this morning actually fixed problems with KDE apps not having any text in widgets. How can I fix the problems with fink so the placeholder will install properly or do I even need to install it?

Did you install the X11 SDK from Apple? This is linked to somewhere on Apple's X11 page. You have to have this for Fink to be able to install software using Apple's X11.
