Summary:                    macro compatibility
Description: 
In 1.4 AEL used to generate macro- prefix for all macro contexts and
transform &m1() calls to Macro(m1). Now 1.6 Macro is deprcated and AEL
generates Gosub instead and does NOT generate macro- prefix.

The problem is that if your dialplan calls AEL macros from regular
dialplan - it will not work because AEL-generated macros do NOT have macro-
prefix while Macro application will add it. For the same reason features
like

myfeature => #,self,Macro,feature1

will not work anymore if feature1 is defined in the AEL.
