Giuseppe, I have attempted to run faxgetty via gdb with these steps:

- Install all packages from bug directory including dbg packages.

- Download gdb wrapper and add your fixes + suggested lines.

- From a local tty run "./gdb-warpper.sh /usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS0"

However after reception of first fax gdb disappears from process list and I return to command prompt. I still have a faxgetty running according to "ps ax" though:
17622 tty1 S 0:00 /usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS0

Is all this behaviour correct? Also if faxgetty segfaults where will I find the dumps/.core files?

Thanks for all your time on this Giuseppe.
