Summary:                    Circular call distribution no longer works
Description: 
In Asterisk 1.2, if I wanted to specifically state the order extensions
were run, I would use priorities and the 'roundrobin' strategy, for
example:

-----------------------------------
[queue]
strategy=roundrobin
timeout=10
retry=1

member => SIP/100,1
member => SIP/102,2
member => SIP/101,3
-----------------------------------

This would have the effect of ringing 100 for 10 seconds, then 102, then
101.

In Asterisk 1.4(.13) and being driven from realtime, this no longer works.
Using 'roundrobin' is now deprectaed and if the queue defined above were
called, 100 would ring for 10 seconds, then would ring for another 10
seconds and so on.

I suspect that this behaviour will break a lot of implementations when
they are upgraded to 1.4 - it's certainly broken two of ours.
