---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
I was affected by this bug after an upgrade from Asterisk 1.6.2.0 on Ubuntu
Karmic to Asterisk 1.6.2.5 on Ubuntu Lucid.  On my PBX, it resulted in
voice prompts being cut-off and the "follow me" feature being unable to
connect with external POTS numbers.

My kludge was to replace IAX trunking with SIP trunking wherever possible.
 My PBX became rock solid again after applying this change.
