[asterisk-users] Gosub behavior change <=1.6.0.5 to 1.6.0.6

Here's one that may be of interest to any upgraders.  If you rely on the
behavior of gosub you may want to make note of this change.

I have an incoming call context:

exten => _XXXX,n,GoSub(incoming,${EXTEN},1(${EXTEN}));

that is supposed to gosub into the incoming extension at priority 1.
Versions before 1.6.0.6 would drop into the incoming,i,1 priority if the
requested extension wasn't present in the incoming context.

When I upgraded to 1.6.0.6 this behavior changed and I would simply get
an error on the console that a matching extension was not found, and the
dialplan would simply stop.  It was easy enough to add:

[incoming]
exten => _XXXX,1,Goto(i,1)

to restore the previous behavior (I'm looking at four-digits from a PRI)
which I should probably have done anyway.

I don't know if this is a bug or WAD but just wanted to mention it.

Barry
