Summary:                    Format list should be copied before being iterated
in ast_filehelper
Description: 
If the disk is slow for whatever reason you get resource starvation if too
many threads are making calls to this function because the list is locked
the entire time.

It's bad enough for me that I'm going to have to put all the files in
/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/en/ on a ramdisk.

Thanks for looking!

It hangs at that lock, so maybe it is something else.

I'll get exact instructions for reproducing it soon.
