With no T10 specified, then ss7_match_extension() should be changed to not call isup_start_digittimeout() if configured for ANSI since that timer is not specified for US networks.  The called number must either match or not match an extension.

1) About T10 - the original code had it as DIGITTIMEOUT timer used for both ITU and ANSI. As T10 on my understanding has the similar functionality i have renamed it to T10 which led to the confusion, because T10 is not defined for ANSI ... after digging (googling) a bit more i've found that 'In North America, enbloc signaling is always used', so it is OK to leave it as T10 and will fix ss7_match_extension() to send REL if T10 is not defined or ANSI (just to be safe) ... isup_start_digittimeout() in libss7 should be changed to non-void.
Actually libss7 is unable to use overlap dialing out and i have not tested dialing in too - that functionality deserves some attention later.

2) the code removed after v6 https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/1676/diff/6/?file=29257#file29257line1461, should be restored then - dropping both calls is the only way out of this situation as we do not have an isup_call yet and no way to inform libss7
