[Asterisk-Dev] Bug 3203 "Get RT without runaway risk" revisited

This bug

    http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=3203

mentions several patches that implement a safeguard against running
Asterisk with realtime priority on Linux. Without such a solution, an
infinite loop anywhere in an Asterisk process running at realtime
priority can effectively kill the machine, locking out all other
processes (including root shells).

The bug has been suspended due to no activity, and we are now in the
need for this feature. So I just wanted to ask if anyone has some code
for this? Otherwise I will have a go at implementing it.

I will probably open another bug once the patch is ready.

 - Kristian.
