You've got to be careful with `tip'. On some implementations, it
appears to ignore control signals from the pins; and you get the
situation where you'd be able to connect to the modem with `tip'
whereas `cu' would just freeze.

Check out your modem connection with `cu', since that's usually run at
the same privilege level as hfaxd. If that doens't work, I'd check out
your pin-connections.
