> When the rtpstart value configured in rtp.conf parity is odd and all RTP ports are already used, the next call will start an infinite loop.
> ast_rtp_new walks through the RTP port range configured until it finds a free one. It starts at a random position, wraps around at the end of the range and return an error if it comes back to the starting position. 
> Unfortunately, this code assumes an even value was set in rtpstart since we never go back to the starting position otherwise.
> Either a correct value for rtpstart should be enforced when parsing the configuration or the port lookup should not assume anything and never fail to break the loop.
