Summary:                    [patch] RFC3261 Via-header branches not done right
(section
Description: 
We're testing asterisk and res_fax against a Zoiper Communicator and got
into a SIP issue. When there's a re-INVITE to T.38, the branch parameter is
the same as for the INVITE, which in fact is wrong, because:

RFC 3261, https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=8.1.1.7 : "...the branch ID
was constructed in the fashion
described by this specification (that is, globally unique)."
https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=17.2.3: "
The branch parameter in the topmost Via header field of the request
is examined.  If it is present and begins with the magic cookie
"z9hG4bK", the request was generated by a client transaction
compliant to this specification.  Therefore, the branch parameter
will be unique across all transactions sent by that client.
"

Attached is a packet capture that shows this - the re-invite is not
accepted by the softphone as it has the same branch parameter and is
treated as a retransmit.

This is an issue from Asterisk 1.4 upwards.

The branch needs to be updated for all transactions except ACK and CANCEL.
