As the segfault is coming from the underlying PAM module (pam_mysql.so) 
in proper pam API handling the problem will occur regardless of what 
HylaFAX version is being used as there is no way to avoid it given the 
/etc/pam.d/hylafax usage that Klaus has presented.

I would disagree with the "quite a bit different" characterization, 
however.  The way that the code is arranged is, indeed, quite a bit 
different... but what the code actually does is nearly exactly the same 
between hylafax.org and HylaFAX+ versions.  Even a very light reading of 
the code reveals this.

Thanks,

Lee.
