Has anyone managed to compile nmap 3.50 on OS X 10.3.x?

Yes.  You might try using Darwin ports.  I have had better luck with 
them than Fink.  Fink did not work well after an upgrade from 10.2 to 
10.3 for me and I like the ports in Darwin ports.



Well for the archives or anyone that cares, Darwin ports works nearly
flawlessly on 10.3.4.  I had one hiccup with an expat dependency, but
unlike any of the problems with fink, this was a trivial fix.

Most importantly, I got nmap 3.50 to build with SSL and PCRE, zero
problems.  It works exactly as expected.

My advice to all the 10.3.x Mac users out there is to rm -rf /sw and
install Darwin ports instead.

Thanks for the tip MadHat!
