You included this trace:

02/26 17:38:56 yS1  mgetty: experimental test release 1.1.28-Jan10
02/26 17:38:56 yS1  check for lockfiles
02/26 17:38:56 yS1  huh? It's *our* lock file!

When I try it, I get:

02/26 09:54:33 yS2  mgetty: experimental test release 1.1.24-Jan07
02/26 09:54:33 yS2  check for lockfiles

I have several observations:

1.  This problem is with mgetty, not Hylafax.
2.  There is a huge delay between the message 'check modem settings', and
    waiting.  This is a clue - mgetty might be having trouble with its
    query of the modem.
3.  The rev level of your mgetty software is different than mine.  I have
    no idea what's changed.
4.  You probably will have less trouble with 'agetty'.  You can test this
    by re-naming the executable files:

	cd /sbin
	mv mgetty mgetty-
	ln -s agetty mgetty

    and then changing the GettyArgs string, and re-starting faxgetty.
    If this works, you might consider removing the mgetty package from your
    system.

For your reference, here is a log trace from my mgetty with debug in
/etc/mgetty+sendfax/mgetty.config set to 9:
