Summary
-------

I noticed that when using asterisk -rx to execute "test execute all", I never get all of the output from the command.  The process exits early.  This patch at least helps that situation.  asterisk -rx is actually quite a hack.  This patch does not change the fact that it is a hack, but it allows you to control the timeout used before it exits.

Obviously, using astcli is a better solution, but this still seems like a worthwhile improvement to using asterisk -rx.


This addresses bug 17049.

Testing
-------

With this patch, asterisk -rx "test execute all" will exit early.  asterisk -rx "test execute all" -w 10000 allows me to get all of the output (until someone writes a test that doesn't produce any output in 10 seconds ...).


Thanks,

Russell
