yes, res_fax is gone, and i tgz'd my modules directory, moved it aside 
and re-installed.

to be clear, as updated, the problem lies before going to the fax extension.

straight to ReceiveFax works, with faxdetect on & off.

but if i just let the transfer via CNG tone happen and:
exten => fax,1,NoOp( in fax extension )
exten => fax,n,Goto(fax,rx,1)

the call exits before the noop is printed.

The SIP trace shows Asterisk sending a BYE, but the 
X-Asterisk-Hangupcause is 'unknown'
