Is this not the problem that people didn't like about PJSIP back at the
very beginning? I know the code isn't inside the Asterisk source code etc.
But should we be forcing people by default to use bundled?

I personally don't have an issue with it (As I use bundled all the time
now) - just thinking back to what people had an issue with however many
years ago
