Summary:                    CHANNEL variable is set incorrectly by Asterisk
Description: 
Ever since I installed version 1.6.2.14 of Asterisk, the CHANNEL variable
appears to behave differently that before - specifically saying: it now
doesn't return the technology type, and the the ID appears to be a little
chopped.

Here's an extract from my extensions.ael:

	_X. => {
		__GLOBAL_T1=${EPOCH};
		__CONTINUED_CALL=FALSE;
		__T1=${EPOCH};
		TIMEOUT(digit)=3;
		TIMEOUT(response)=3;
		__INBOUND_DID=${EXTEN};
		__INBOUND_CHANNEL=${CHANNEL};
		__INBOUND_CALLERID=${CALLERID(num)};
		.
		.
		.
		.
		.
		hangup();
        };

The INBOUND_CHANNEL variable is populated only with the ID portion of the
CHANNEL data.
