Summary:                    [patch] crash in bridging api
Description: 
There's a racecondition in smart_bridge_operation(). I do not understand
this function completely, but it seems like one of it's purposes is to
change a bridge's technology. For doing so it stops the bridge->thread
before working on it. Stopping is done by setting a flag and sending a
signal. What's missing there imho is a pthread_join to assure the thread is
really gone.

I noticed crashes when doing transfers from and to the bridges and I guess
one of the reasons is this bug:

The crash is in bridge_softmix, working on a bridge which thinks it's
bridge_multiplexed.

I also got a segfault if a channel hangs up from a 3-party-bridge.

This patch solved the problem for me - please include.
