Just FYI Arch Devs - Hylafax needs a patch to build with gcc 4.5. You may want
to wait for 6.0.6 for the next version update. Details from the ifax devs below:

Subject: Re: [hylafax-users] Error building 6.0.5 on Arch Linux
/sys/stat.h:299:47: error: declaration of ‘int fchmod(int, __mode_t) throw ()’
throws different exceptions

You'll want to apply this:
http://git.hylafax.org/HylaFAX?a=commitdiff;h=b0d873c950a72aa568d2fcfe7dbc8bb6e981c129
I still believe this is a bug in GCC 4.5+, where they turned something
every other compiler handles a fatal error, causing configure not to
find the declaration for fchmod (and thus declare it's own in port.h).
I doubt anyone will be able to convince GCC of this ;-) See:
http://bugs.hylafax.org/show_bug.cgi?id=924
configure has been changed in HylaFAX to not tickle that particular
property of GCC.
That fix was applied to the 6.0 branch after 6.0.5 was released, but
no distros were based on GCC 4.5+ yet at that time.
I guess it's time for 6.0.6 release...
a.

Guys,
I was working with hylafax in Arch updating the package from 6.0.4 to 6.0.5
and I ran into a strange error related to "throws different exceptions":

Aborting...
I'm getting better at sorting this stuff out, but exception handling
problems are the exception... no pun intended. What says the experts. I
wanted a clean install to look at permissions again on the bin/notify.php
and bin/faxrcvd.php issue and thought I might as well try 6.0.5.
What say the experts? What is the probable cause of throwing different
exceptions? The stat.h file on Arch is available on my server here:
