I'm not complaining about running experimental software, I'm pointing out my 
experiences in the hopes you may be able to use it for improvements :-)

Cool. The latest tarball however still does have an issue while compiling the 
apps within asterisk:

gcc -O2 -g  -Iinclude -I../include -I/usr/src/tiff-v3.5.7/libtiff -
I/usr/src/spandsp-20031020/src -c -o  app_rxfax.o app_rxfax.c
In file included from app_rxfax.c:38:
/usr/src/spandsp-20031020/src/t30.h:96: parse error before `t4_state_t'
/usr/src/spandsp-20031020/src/t30.h:96: warning: no semicolon at end of struct 
or union
app_rxfax.c:52: storage size of `fax' isn't known
make[1]: *** [app_rxfax.o] Error 1

Any clue what I can do about that ?
