You mean, the one from the Development packages?

OK, I tried it, it doesn't work. Same problem.

Could you please attach error messages which jpilot write after unsuccesfull sync.

Before that, here's a good one: if i click on Restore Handheld, jpilot crashes hard:

OK, now to answer the request:

I push the sync button on the PDA dock. The PDA displays "identifying user" or
something like that, and stays there until it says that the connection was lost.
Meanwhile, jpilot displays this:

PC ID is 0.
I generated a new PC ID.  It is 516657801
****************************************
 Syncing on device /dev/ttyUSB1
 Press the HotSync button now
****************************************
Username is ""
User ID is -1080646512
lastSyncPC = 134821984
This PC = 516657801
dlp_OpenConduit() failed
Sync canceled
Exiting with status SYNC_ERROR_OPEN_CONDUIT
Finished

Third attempt, the PDA displays same. jpilot displays:

****************************************
 Syncing on device /dev/ttyUSB1
 Press the HotSync button now
****************************************
Username is ""
User ID is -1080646512
lastSyncPC = 134821984
This PC = 516657801
dlp_OpenConduit() failed
Sync canceled
Exiting with status SYNC_ERROR_OPEN_CONDUIT
Finished

Meanwhile, something keeps deleting my /dev/ttyUSB* files and I have no idea how
to stop that.

Which version of pilot-link package do you use? 
The last version is pilot-link-0.12.0-0.pre4.5, if you use older version, could
you update your pilot-link package and try to reproduce this problem again and
attach output error messages (if this bug will present).

We're getting closer.

# rpm -qa | grep pilot
gnome-pilot-devel-2.0.13-2
pilot-link-0.12.0-0.pre4.5
pilot-link-devel-0.12.0-0.pre4.5
jpilot-0.99.8-0.pre10.2
gnome-pilot-2.0.13-2

With the new pilot-link, jpilot tells me that the PDA has a NULL user id (which
is expected, since I lost all memory when the batteries died). However, I can't
use Restore Handheld to restore my PDA from the jpilot backup because jpilot
will crash.
Any idea?

SUCCESS!!!

jpilot is crashing on Restore Handheld if there is no PDA backup in ~/.jpilot
When I used my ~/.jpilot backup directory instead of a fresh one, it worked. I
was able to restore my PDA. sync seems to work fine.
I'll do more tests, but overall it appears to work well.

I mark this bug as needinfo_reporter. If you find any problem with these
versions of pilot-link and jpilot, please create a comment. If you don't find
any problem please close this bug.
Thank you for your notice and excellent cooperation. 

Thank you!
I'll post any outstanding issues with the software versions I'm using now.

Any idea when the fixed versions are going to show up in the Fedora updates?

First pilot-link should be upgraded, jpilot have to be updated after this
update. Pilot-link's upgrade should be soon (this week) and jpilot upgrade will
be done directly after this update.

This problem should be fixed now, in fc4 there is jpilot-0.99.8-0.pre10.fc4.1
version. 
Feel free to open this bug if there is any problem. 
Thanks for your help.
