Right. I don't think this has anything to do with it.

That would be this one:

  shift ;catpid=`${ONDELAY} $tdev $SH -c "$* >$OUT" & echo $!`

(line 776)

This puts somthing like this (processnumbers change) into the background:

/usr/local/sbin/ondelay /dev/ttyS1 /bin/bash -c "/bin/stty clocal && \
	exec /bin/cat -u /dev/ttyS1 >/tmp/.faxaddmodem20344/addmodem20344"

and it saves the process id of this command in $catpid to be able to
kill it later.
