Yes - it does break the distinctive ring detection, but that's easily
sorted out.

The "correct" way would be to move the "if (p->use_callerid == 2)"
code within the existing "if (p->use_callerid)" block, with a couple
more "if" conditionals here and there.  The quick way, however, is
to apply the attached chan_zap.c hack over the top of Tony Hoyle's
great work.

In the standard chan_zap.c, you can't have distinctive ring detection
unless you also need Caller*ID detection.

My hack makes two changes:

    1. Changes an "else if" into an "if" to get the "world = USA"
       Caller*ID code to run.  This will waste a little time, but
       no more than we were wasting anyway, before Tony's patch was
       applied.

    2. Comment out a line of code to ensure that we always answer
       after the first ring.  We need the first ring to give the
       the distinctive ring code something to work with, of course.

It works for me.  Hopefully it'll work for you too.
