Summary:                    Asterisk crashes on reload of pbx_config.so
Description: 
After a recent upgrade from 1.2 to 1.4 we are getting intermittent crashes
when we issue a "reload pbx_config.so" from the asterisk console.  Notably,
our dialplan is quite large (http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=8#50MB).  This
did not appear to be a problem
under 1.2.  bt and bt full attached.  Since its not always re-producible,
I'm hoping that someone the bt will prove useful / informative to someone.

Awesome on the memory leak fixes.  I'm sure these will improve long term
stability for us as we still reload our dialplan a lot.  In general though,
we haven't been seeing this specific crash lately.   We are running 1.4
trunk r87739 these days.

Other than this crash, the most serious issue for us is the chan_sip.so
reload issue I had previously mentioned.  With 5000 sip peers on a single
asterisk server, sip call processing is stopped for approx 45 sec when
chan_sip reloads on a dual CPU dell 1950.  We are in the process of
migrating our sip peers to realtime to try to avoid this issue.  You may
want to check this out since you have our dialplan.  Extension / pbx_config
reloads are much less of an issue because calls do not stop processing on
these reloads.  We have had to back off our sip reloads to a bare minimum
to avoid causing service issues, but this limits our ability to be
responsive to necessary config changes.
