Since an AGI executes as a separate process communicating with Asterisk 
via stdin and stdout, how can an AGI kill Asterisk?

(I'm assuming Asterisk won't let the AGI "buffer overflow" a channel 
variable or other string.)

Do you have an example of an AGI killing Asterisk or did you intend to say 
"application?"

Thanks in advance,
