Summary:                    If 'retry' is set to 0, it gets treated as though
it's set to 5.
Description: 
A queue is defined as follows:

---------------------
[testq]
timeout=10
retry=0
strategy=ringall
wrapuptime=0
maxlen=0
joinempty=no
leavewhenempty=yes
eventmemberstatus=no
eventwhencalled=no
reportholdtime=no
memberdelay=0
weight=0
timeoutrestart=0
autopause=no
member => SIP/100
member => SIP/101
member => SIP/102
---------------------

When a call is placed in a queue, the phones ring for 10 seconds (as per
'timeout') and then wait for about 5 seconds before ringing again.

If 'retry' is changed to '1' (retry=1), then when a call is placed in a
queue, the phones ring for 10 seconds (as per 'timeout') and then wait for
one second before ringing again.

In 1.2.x, a value of '0' was allowed for 'retry'. I've searched the docs
and can't see any reference to this having changed.

I believe this actually correct behavior.  I'm trying to find the commit
right now, but I think this was changed because if only one device was in
the queue, and the retry time was set to 0, it would constantly spam the
device with calls, causing a large amount of load on the server.  If I'm
remembering correctly, this was also changed in 1.2.
