Summary:                    1.6.1.18 : app_dial times out when call forward set
on the phone, forward channel still observes original dial timeout
Description: 
We're using asterisk 1.6.1.18 and experiencing early timeout on
callforwarded channels because on do_foward() nothing resets original
channel timeout. When the call is forwarded to PSTN (mobile) nobody is able
to pick up within general timeout timer.

We developed a new version including a z(factor) parameter where in case
of forward the general timeout is multiplied by z(factor), granting more
time to users to answer. 

It just works.

Anybody interested ?
