Yeah, that's the theory anyway.  :-)

And what whatever ripple effects they might have caused.  I may end up
with a bug in code I never use being fixed causing a bug in code I do
use.

Sure, but it's the only bug that is causing me problems currently.  Like
I said "if it ain't broke don't fix it", and my corollary, "if it is
broke, only fix what's broke, don't try to make it better".

Well, in fact I did try to build 1.4.17 a while ago and it ended up
being a complete nightmare of required upgraded dependencies that I just
gave up and will wait for the Ubuntu upgrade to Hardy to upgrade my
Asterisk to whatever release is in that.

Yes, true, but only after having pissed a bunch of time away on trying,
getting complaints from users, etc.  No thanks.
