Summary:                    No answer to OPTIONS packet because Asterisk not
looking for 's' in default context
Description: 
Hello,

asterisk-1.8.0 installed through yum on CentOS 5.5 32bit. 

My SIP provider is checking if I'm alive with OPTIONS. I must answer to
that request with "SIP/2.0 200 OK". The default behavior is to check if I
have a peer with that IP, then check for "s" in it's context. If not check
for "s" in the guests context (context=XX from general section of
sip.conf). Or I'm missing something?

With 1.8.0 the extension part is missing. Some debug logs:
1.1.1.1 is the SIP provider, 2.2.2.2 is my IP.

In the part "Looking for  in guests" it should be "Looking for s in

What is the status of this issue? Any progress? 
I think it's a big problem. Many VoIP providers are checking if the peer
is alive with OPTIONS packets and considering "dead" if no response is send
back. So right now asterisk 1.8 DO NOT support that kind of trunks.
