Summary:                    deadlock in chan_sip
Description: 
I've only seen this happen twice, both instances separated by about a
month.  
The only symptom is that Asterisk stops responding to SIP packets.

This time I ran 'pkill -11 asterisk' when it happened so I could get a
core dump. So, when looking at the backtrace, the segfault isn't the
problem.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
It appears that ast_rdlock_contexts() and ast_wrlock_contexts() both call
ast_mutex_lock which in turn calls pthread_mutex_lock, so these definitely
aren't rwlocks.
