Exit status zero means it terminated normally (well thats the standard).
Have you checked the syslog (/var/log/messages) for anything from getty?
You might also want to up the syslog logging level so that you can see
what getty is doing.

You might also like to try getting the incoming data connection working
without Hylafax in the way. If nothing else it is a great learning
experience :-). Checkout the Serial-HOWTO.
