Summary:                    [patch] Asterisk won't compile against uclibc
Description: 
index is used in main/pbx.c. This breaks compilation under uclibc as it
doesn't provide the index function. Replacing this with strchr, which index
is an alias for, solves the problem.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
You can configure uclibc to provide the necessary functions, which does
allow it to compile.

The reason for proposing the patch is that the necessary functions aren't
enabled by default, meaning a little research is required to figure out why
it's not compiling. The proposed changes, while there are quite a few, are
all one line, and are simple translations which are well documented. The
recommended functions, memset and memmove, are used throughout the asterisk
codebase, so it's not introducing functions that haven't previously been
used. It's just a bit of hosuekeeping really.

Either way, I'm happy that this bug report should provide a pointer to the
solution for people trying to compile asterisk against uclibc, if the patch
isn't accepted.

I can split the patch into one removing bzero and one removing bcopy if
that makes it easier to review?
