I don't have an AVM C4 and I did not test with 4 PtP BRI before, but there 
shouldn't be a problem.

The ZAP dial structire e.g. (ZAP/g1/..) is not yet available (0.4.0 should 
have it). With 0.3.5 you just set the main PtP number (e.g. 1234) as msn for
each controller.
When dialing Dial(CAPI/123455...) a free channel of all controllers matching 
this msn will be used.

Hmm, why not just tell asterisk to do nothing (or wait some time) with 
1234-12 and let the other application do it ?
