It turns out Tony Lill had done the work allready.
I stripped out the neccessary stuff from a largre diff file Tony sent me,
applied it, and tested it. It works great. Thanks Tony.
Faxes that had trouble befor now work.

I've attached the patch.

Yes I know that I can setup permission for received faxes, but I want to
change permission on fax wich I am sending.

When I send fax, there hylafax make postscript file in directory
/var/spool/fax/docq/ with permission 0600 but I want permission 0644.
