[asterisk-dev] channel.c:ast_channel_free question

While tracking down another issue, I came across this code in main/ 
channel.c:ast_channel_free:

         if (chan->tech_pvt) {
                 ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Channel '%s' may not have been  
hung up properly\n", chan->name);
                 free(chan->tech_pvt);
         }

I had valgrind report something was still using this. That may have  
been due to some other bugs since fixed in bug report 11940, but I'm  
not sure. Anyway, should this really be freeing chan->tech_pvt when  
chan_sip should generally be taking care of that?
