sendfax -d 555.1212 x
553 Unable to open sequence number file docq/seqf; No such file or directory.

I dug a little deeper this time.
Looking at your patch
....
    int rtn = lstat(filename, &sb);
    if (rtn == ENOENT) {
        fd = Sys::open(filename, O_CREAT | O_RDWR | O_EXCL, 0600);
    } else if (rtn == 0 && S_ISREG(sb.st_mode)) {
...

And looking ath the man page for lstat
...

Return values
   On success, stat, lstat, fstat, stat64, lstat64, and fstat64 return 0.
   On failure, they return -1 and set errno to identify the error.
