In any case, I got impatient.. After all I have the source, so I should 
just fix (ahem more like break) it myself, right? :)

I added the following patch in an effort to get something to work, but 
it isn't quite working the way I expected;

        if (f && (f->frametype == AST_FRAME_CONTROL) && (f->subclass == AST_CONTROL_ANSWER)) {

                if (p->ackcall) {
-                       if (option_verbose > 2)

+                       ast_streamfile(p->chan, "all-your-base", p->chan->language);

                                ast_verbose(VERBOSE_PREFIX_3 "%s answered, waiting for '#' to acknowledge\n", p->chan->name);
                        /* Don't pass answer along */
                        ast_frfree(f);

The result of this is the following on the console;

    -- outgoing agentcall, to agent '216410xxxx', on 'Local/216410xxxx at default-b639,1'

The agent gets the call, and hears a click and then the channel drops. Any 
suggestions?
