Summary:                    Local channel does not support exten/callerid style
dialplan entries (ast_exists_extension placement).
Description: 
local_alloc in chan_local.c calls ast_exists_extension before any CallerID
information for the local channel is populated.  Therefore, it cannot pass
the CallerID number to ast_exists_extensions like other channel techs do. 
So calls will not match the exten/callerid style dialplan entries like
these:
7002001234/_212NXXNXXXXX,1,Noop(Call from 212 area.)

Either the CallerID information should be populated before
ast_exists_extension in local_alloc is called, or the call to
ast_exists_extension to be placed somewhere after the CallerID information
is established in local_call.

This problem also seems to exist in 1.6, after quickly checking
chan_local.c

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
The only logical thing I can think of to do would be to remove the
optimization completely where we check that the extension exists, since we
won't know what the callerid will be until later on in the call process.

Would this change solve your issue?
