Sorry, I did not know these american specialities. I just noticed in 
Larry's PRI debug info that he received a STATUS message during the 
waiting, so I thought that the waiting could lead to some kind of timeout 
at the telco. In EuroISDN the callerid always come in first SETUP message 
and so it did in Larry's pri debug.
