Summary:                    segfault in 1.6.1.6 in _ao2_find, called from
chan_iax2 after approx. 75.000 calls
Description: 
I'm running Asterisk 1.6.1.6 since 19 days now,
but I've had 3 times a segfault on the same address.

Sep 17 13:03:57 switch02 kernel: asterisk[13597]: segfault at 
00002aaa0000000a rip 0000000000435c36 rsp 00000000420b1440 error 4
     In the mean time 75.517 calls were setup.
Sep 22 19:07:13 switch02 kernel: asterisk[23982]: segfault at 
00002aaa0000000a rip 0000000000435c36 rsp 0000000042142440 error 4
     In the mean time  76.725 calls were setup.
Sep 28 14:26:16 switch02 kernel: asterisk[2777]: segfault at 
00002aaa0000000a rip 0000000000435c36 rsp 0000000042088440 error 4

It's a live server running production traffic. So I don't have much 
possibilities to easily test a different version.
Also the issue only happens to me once a week (about once every approx. 
75.000 calls).
The segfault didn't happen on the most busiest times (sunday), but just 
on the more quiet days.

The last time the server had 50 calls, 97 channels (43 chan_ss7 
channels, 46 sip channels and 8 iax2 channels)

Software running:
  - CentOS 5 (latest updates as of 11 sept 2009)
  - asterisk 1.6.1.6
  - chan_ss7 1.2.1
  - dahdi-linux 2.2.0.2
  - dahdi-tools 2.2.0
  - wanpipe 3.5.6

I have requested to reopen the issue because i do have had exact the same
crash (backtrace does show exact the same) on a machine running asterisk
1.6.1.6 - without having chan_ss7 or any other third party module loaded.
So the crash is not related to something else.
I am also using many iax connections (in trunking mode) - forwarded to sip
channels. The crash did also happend after some time - so around after
100.000 calls.
I have had the crash the first time - now i did an update to 1.6.2.0.
I will report if the crash does also happen there.
On the same machine i was hit also by the bug
https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=16058

Could this be related ?
