The commonest cause of this kind of problem is having multiple versions 
of spandsp installed in different directories - e.g /usr and /usr/local. 
The funky build systems can manage to build against one, but run using 
the other one. If the aren't binary compatible...... boom.

As far as I know, app_fax adapts at build time to the version of 
spandsp, for any version of spandsp from the last couple of years.

You really ought to be running spandsp-0.0.6pre16 for best results.
