Right. Why do the .h files have the install date
instead of the last modified date?

Well, we've got plenty of disk space, and it
gives a historical record of upgrades.
Why wouldn't we want to keep them around?
This seems to imply that the include files should
be copied into:
/usr/include/asterisk/
Is this correct?

I am confused. Are you saying that when compiling
or recompiling the Asterisk modules don't link?
I am not exactly sure what you are saying.
Again, what is the best way to handle include files
so that rxfax and txfax will compile, and will allow
for future upgrades of Asterisk versions?
