I can reproduce the same problem by simply unplugging a normal SIP 
handset from the power during a call (or it crashes and locks up).  When 
the handset gets re-booted the call is left in progress, new incoming 
calls aren't taken (because asterisk thinks that the handset is still in 
a call) and other problems

I added an "L()" entry on the dialplan to limit calls to something 
sensible in the meantime, but would like to get a proper workaround?

Any thoughts
