As for free ones:

Sarge includes kphone and linphone. Both have disappointed me. I tried
building and using minisip. It was generally better, but it wasn't mature 
enough (no dtmf, crashes on SIGCONT).

Currently I'm using iaxcomm from the package iaxclient in
http://mentors.debian.net . Contact me privately if you need my debs.
That package is certainly good enough to get into main...

Non-free ones: not on my system.
