Uh... the (new) IAX2 code is perfectly capable of trunking multiple sources 
going to the same destination WITHOUT screwing with their relative 
timestamps.  I worked with Steve Kann while he figured it out.  Seems to work 
pretty good for me.

Also remember that you can do the IP+UDP compression on IAX2 as well (RTP 
compression won't work obviously, but the trunked frames are already 
size-reduced to start with).
