Summary:                    SendFax and T38 issues
Description: 
I am trying to get SendFax to work using a call file.

I initially tried it with asterisk-1.6.0.3 (spandsp-0.0.5pre4).

When I sent a call to a local spa2102 TA, the far end sent a re-invite to
switch over to T38, and the call went through as T38.

asterisk1.6.0.3 --> SBC --> ast1.4 --> spa2102

When I sent the call out to a land line via a carrier (SIP trunk),
asterisk receives the T38 reinvite, however the 200 OK that it sends back
only has g711 as a codec choice, and not udptl t38.  As a result, the fax
failes.

asterisk1.6.0.3 --> SBC --> SIP trunk

I then tried upgrading to asterisk-1.6.2.0-beta1 (spandsp-0.0.6pre7).
Now when I make the call to the land line over the SIP trunk the behavior
is the same, however when I call the spa2102 line, ast1.6.2.0-beta1 rejects
the SIP reinvite with a 488, and the fax completes inband.

Also, the 1.6.2.0-beta1 spits out these errors while the fax in in
progress:

[Apr  1 13:53:41] ERROR[10228]: channel.c:2539 __ast_read: ast_read()
called with no recorded file descriptor.

I will attach packet captures for these scenarios momentarily.  I can
reproduce this behavior consistently and can provide whatever info/debug is
needed.
