Summary:                    [patch] Seg fault in chan_local - local_pvt_destroy
Description: 
This is the same issue as 14780. We also use SNOM phones (300s and 320s)
however these extensions are not connected to the server on which Asterisk
crashed. The crash occurred on the queue server.

A backtrace of the crash has been attached.

The crash here occurred when callfile finished execution. We use callfiles
to pause/unpause the agents. The local_pvt being freed is not null:

__m_kind = 1, __m_lock = {__status = 0, __spinlock = 0}}, track = 1, file =
{0x2e0f08 "chan_local.c", 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0},
lineno = {158, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, reentrancy = 0, func = {0x2e0fbe
"local_pvt_destroy", 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0}, thread =
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, reentr_mutex = {__m_reserved = 0, __m_count
= 0, __m_owner = 0x0, __m_kind = 1, __m_lock = {__status = 0, __spinlock =
0}}}, flags = 16, context = "vital-out", '\0' <repeats 70 times>, exten =
"*\000vital-out\000n", '\0' <repeats 66 times>, reqformat = 64, owner =
0x0, chan = 0x0, u_owner = 0xa2234c8, u_chan = 0xa1c3500, list = {next =
0x0}}


Due to the fact that our queue servers are so busy I cannot simply upgrade
it to a newer version (this one in particular handles around 10000 calls
per day) unless I know a version is stable. I've tested 1.4.25 and it
proved horrendously unstable (deadlocks and seg faults).

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
I'll have a look, but the local channel is rather more than a proxy in the
way it is implemented and p->lock should only be accessed by chan_local.c,
so the local channel should be taking responsbility for its safe use.

Agent is closer to being a true proxy.

(Current line of thought - is IS_OUTGOING safe?)
