oh, that would be me.

Here it is fairly untested but does seem to work.  Apply this patch to the
util/Class2Send.c++ file in the hylafax distribution and rebuild.  It will
help when the cause of the problem is line noise, or you are trying to
force the session down to 2400 where some fax machines seem willing to
accept the document.
