I made a patch for g3cat (which is used by faxspool to glue the fax tagline
to the rest of the page), so that the overall pagesize is not affected. When
a cmdline-switch is set, it just drops the necessary number of lines at the
top of the page (which is usually empty).

Maybe it fits your needs... :-) You'll find it at:
