There is a binary rpm package available at ftp.hylafax.org which does the biz;
but if for some reason you need to compile HylaFAX yourself, you will need
some patches from :

       http://www.hylafax.org/patches/index.php

Mininium necessary are gcc-2.8.x.patch, configure-redhat.patch, 
defs-regex.patch, textfmt-mailer.patch, tagline.patch (I think).

I would also recommend Nico Kadel-Garcia's installation notes for Linux
users - even if you are using the rpm package; they are also on the main
ftp site or direct from the author's homepages at :-

     http://cirl.meei.harvard.edu/hylafax/INSTALL-linux5.x.v4.0pl2.php
