Summary:                    [patch] FXO channels "hookstate" incorrect on
startup
Description: 
Referencing bug 13786 (http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=13786) which
attempts to work around an underlying problem in userspace (chan_dahdi). 
The issue seems to be (as described by tzafrir):

It seems to expose a bug(?) in zaptel/dahdi where chan->rxhooksig is set
to RX_HOOKSIG_INITIAL at the end of chanconfig() which leaves the channel's
state there "uninitialized" and even if the channel driver knows better it
cannot override this decision. But I'm not sure what's the intended
behaviour, so I avoid a seperate bug report on that for now.

This is manifested in that I cannot make outbound calls on an FXO card
(Using FXSKS signalling) until I've received an incoming call resetting the
hookstate to offhook (A single ring is good enough), or alternatively,
disconnecting and reconnecting the telephone line.

Cool.

I've electronically signed the license thing (must've missed that I can
sign it electronically previously as I thought I had to fax/mail it
through).

This issue is rather crucial, not sure whether it warrants a version bump
or not though.

patch was compile tested as is, logic was tested in production
environment.
