> Yesterday I spent quite a long time trying to get Asterisk 11 working on a Linux system using a 2.6.18 kernel. I noticed that there was no outbound RTP packets, SIP channels failed miserably to kill themselves and conferences with confbridge did not start.
> It turned out that if I unload res_timing_pthread the RTP and SIP stuff started working again. Timer test showed that the pthread timer did not work.
> This caused a LOT of issues and makes me wonder if we really should even load res_timing_pthread on systems where we know it doesn't work.
