HylaFAX will work with device symlinks, yes. It's not generally
advisable (due to compatibility problems with mgetty, for example), but
it will work.
One thing with which you'll want to take care is that you're using the
*latest* HSF drivers. The older ones were heinously ugly for faxing
and didn't work with HylaFAX because of some poorly doctored modem
responses.
