The new asterisk T.38 functionality is from the Asterisk addons 1.6.0b2 
version of app_fax (and a few small changes in 1.6.0b4), which I thought 
someone would have mentioned to you, since it does use spandsp.

(Or at least the configure script checks for spandsp, I haven't actually 
looked at the code).
