I'm not Steve, but I can tell you what I've found.

0.0.5 seems to be required for building asterisk-1.6.0.6
0.0.6 introduced some API changes, and trunk has been updated, but
asterisk-1.6.0.6 does not have those changes, and you won't be able to
compile unless you replace app_fax.c with the version in the 1.6.0
subversion branch.

I suspect (since it's in 1.6.0 branch) but cannot confirm that the
next 1.6.0. release will have the changes to build / use spandsp-0.0.6

the 5 and 6 have progressively better support for misbehaving faxes,
whereas faxes that behave according to spec work well on all versions
I've tried.
