Description: 
After update from asterisk-1.6.2.14 to asterisk-1.6.2.17
Gosub(macro,s,1(args)) stopped working.

Then I realized all my AEL macros wasn't created with extension s, instead
there is a ~~s~~ extension, which has broken my entire dialplan.

What happened? How to solve that?

Thanks

The primary issue here is that you have apparently long been relying upon
an implementation detail of AEL that, admittedly, changed.

But you should not have been relying on that behavior in the first place,
as it was never guaranteed.  Had you been using the AEL macro facility from
the start, then you would have noticed no change.

There was an issue (linked above in the Relationships section) that caused
spurious warnings to be issued by the AEL compiler. It is the fix for this
that is the difference between 1.6.2.16.2 (and before) and 1.6.2.17.
