I found the problem!

ActionLib is actually hosted at https://github.com/ros-gbp/actionlib-release and no longer at it://github.com/wg-debs/actionlib-release.git – when it didn't install properly, gitinstall simply wouldn't create the CMakeLists.txt file.

The fix is to install ActionLib manually. Go into ~/ros-underlay and use

git clone --recursive git://github.com/ros-gbp/actionlib-release.git /Users/YOURUSERNAME/ros-underlay/actionlib

Then run

rosinstall --catkin ~/ros-underlay http://ros.org/rosinstalls/fuerte-ros-full.rosinstall

And hit skip when the install asks whether you want to replace actionlib. Problem solved!
