Grab my patches below.  It does both chroot and setuid to user
"asterisk".  (You might need to back out one or two of the obvious
Openbsd fixes.)

I've been running chroot and as user "asterisk" for a few weeks now on
this sip-only server.  There are still few loose ends (like "music on
hold" not running correctly, but part of that appears to be an
asterisk scheduler problem under OpenBSD that happens even with no
chroot etc.)
