We have callwaiting=yes
in sections of zapata.conf for both fxo and fxs interfaces.

With a call in progress on the pstn, a second call [waiting]
results in an immediate disconnect of the first pstn call.

On the asterisk end you hear a loud glitch and a burst of
caller ID data, then it disconnects.

This is with the zapata-bsd drivers, maybe with the linux
drivers it would be different.
