I am not fluent with Fink (although I have used it before).  I 
understand that it based on Debian's apt-get.

If Fink provides the option to build from the original source package 
perhaps that is a way to obtain the missing development package?  This 
would require that you have GCC and development versions of the 
graphics libraries that GM depends on already installed.

If this is not sufficient then you could build everything from source 
code manually, or complain to the Fink folks with the hope that they 
will restore the necessary -dev package or update everything needed to 
use a modern GraphicsMagick.

For obvious reasons, I always build GraphicsMagick from source code 
under OS X. :-)
