   You'll find the messages in the syslog deamon files, (if you're using
   it).

Since I saw messages from the fax daemon in /var/adm/messages, I
mistakenly assumed that debug messages would appear there without
further syslog work.  After I did set up a .debug syslog.conf entry, I
was able to read the debug and find the problem in my config file,
some garbage that I think faxaddmodem (or my errant fingers) had
inserted in the middle of modem command.

Thanks to everyone for the quick and helpful responses!

Also, it turns out that the multitech 5634zbav uses a different
chipset than the old multitech default config file, so the hardware
flow commands are different.  In case any one else can use this info,
here is my attempt to turn my config file into a generic one:
