[asterisk-ss7] how to install Asterisk-ss7 & libss7

[Rob Hillis]

I actually figured it out late last night - I needed to "make menuselect"
and re-select everything.  Don't know why (since it was already showing as
selected) but it compiled fine.

I had checked out both zaptel and libpri from SVN as well just to be on
the safe side.  I now have 30 odd zap channels, but calls aren't being
passed through, though my suspicion at this stage is that SS7 support
isn't compiled into my wanpipe drivers.  (Why Sangoma insist on hiding the
SS7 code, I don't know!)
