I had the same problem with 4.1.x under FreeBSD, I suspect a difference 
there between various Linuces and BSD in the way the enviroment is set up.

Anyway, what I did to fix it was to include the complete paths for the 
commands in the script /var/spool/hylafax/bin/faxrcvd, like 
"PS2PDF=/usr/local/bin/ps2pdfwr"

I also got some very useful debugging output by including something 
similar to "exec 2> /tmp/logfile; set -xv" in the script.

HTH,
