One thing to note about Gentoo is that it doesn't like when you
stop a service any other way but the star-start scripts. Marco's
idea is a good one but use the /etc/init.d/asterisk script to
stop, clean up with the above and restart. If you do stop
asterisk with/without the start script make sure to remove the
/var/lib/init.d/started/asterisk link otherwise Gentoo won't
let you restart the asterisk script (ARGH!).
