Looking back at the texlive history, there was a similar failure on 
10.15 with the older texlive-texmf-v0.20140525. See 
https://github.com/fink/fink-distributions/issues/490

What's your output of `fink list texlive-texmf` ?

If you edit the file /opt/sw/share/texmf-dist/web2c/fmtutil.cnf around 
line 96, and add the # symbol at the very beginning of the line that 
starts with "luajittex luajittex language.def", and then try `fink 
reinstall texlive-base`, does that let the build finish? If it fails on 
luajithbtex, then also add # to the line immediately above the one you 
edited first. What's interesting is that I have a system with macOS 
13.6.3 and don't get this failure.
