Summary:                    [patch] asterisk command history loads as unusable
garbage
Description: 
When using asterisk interactively with command interface a history file is
created (~/.asterisk_history). Lines written to the history file are
white-space encoded (in ast_el_write_history:history:case
H_SAVE:history_save:strvis).

But when the history file is loaded it reverse (strunvis) is not
performed.  Therefore the history becomes unusable garbage.

Aaaand, I've uploaded a patch that will fix the history problem in Fedora. 
I'm not going to do a special build just for this patch but it'll start
showing up in packages as new versions of Asterisk are released.

I'm going to test this out with the internal editline library and if it
works I really think that it should be included with the released branches
as it actually reduces the amount of code.
