Er, I don't get quite the same output as you - I'm on 1.2 though. A test 
call I've just done - extension 109 called extension 100, and extension 
101 (a grandstream phone) picked it up by pushing the BLF key 
corresponding to extension 100:



     -- Executing Dial("SIP/109-0820a178", "IAX2/100&SIP/100||WwTton") in new stack
     -- Called 100
     -- SIP/100-081fe780 is ringing
  Extension Changed 100 new state Ringing for Notify User 101
     -- Executing Pickup("SIP/101-081edf38", "100") in new stack
     -- Executing Hangup("SIP/101-081edf38", "") in new stack
   == Spawn extension (internal, **100, 2) exited non-zero on 'SIP/101-081edf38'
     -- SIP/101-081edf38 answered SIP/109-0820a178
  Extension Changed 100 new state Idle for Notify User 101
   == Spawn extension (macro-dialInternal, s, 53) exited non-zero on 'SIP/109-0820a178' in macro 'dialInternal'

So your pickup is picking up a group - seems odd to me, but maybe the 
behaviour changed after 1.2 ?

One other thing - do you have

   exten => 65,1,Dial(SIP/65)

As pickup works on the extension not the channel... (ie. what do you dial 
on a phone to make the SIP/65 ring? What does the DDI point to?)
