Even so, when Dial() completes (failure or not) and there is no 'g' option 
there, the 'h' extension is called to handle the hangup.  _X. won't match 
that.

Why not?

pbxA:
Set(IAXVAR(RDNIS)=${CALLERID(rdnis)})
Dial(IAX2/user at pbxB/${EXTEN})

pbxB:
Set(REMOTE_RDNIS=${IAXVAR(RDNIS)})
Agi(do_something_funky.agi)

??

Again, I agree that the standard telephony variables should be passed without 
this mechanism, but until a bug is filed and that issue is discussed, it's 
not part of this particular issue.  :-)
