At the moment, the answer is "I don't think so".  If Cisco supplies
something that will do a reverse telnet from behind a pty, yes, but
otherwise, faxsend and faxgetty expect to talk AT protocol to a
character device.

In fact, because of handshaking and stuff, I'm not sure even a PTY
interface would be good enough: the daemon might have to use a special
device driver to emulate a physical serial port.

There are one or two sepcial drivers for CAPI/ISDN, but I haven't heard
about anyone running on a 5300.  If there is someone, I suspect they'll
be here.
