I uploaded a new version of fink-package-precedence (0.19-1) that uses 
"otool-classic" if present (falling back to "otool" if not), which 
should resolve the problem. Please let me know--I don't have xcode8, so 
I'm just implementing what Alexander, and several others on IRC and 
other places, have reported.
