   That code prevents the queue from growing larger than 2.5 *seconds* long
and is utterly ineffective at doing much of anything except causing Asterisk
to core dump. :-) ...and it's not new - it is in 1.2 as well.
   
   Yes, the patch was against 1.2.13. I don't have 1.4 handy, but I recall
that the function was essentially identical.
