I wrote a patch for Asterisk (which is on the bugtracker) some time ago
to add 5 userfields.  We still use this on our systems, but the patch on
the tracker has grown somewhat stale and will not be included because it
was deemed the incorrect way to do it (if you want to do it properly you
should allow some custom configuration in cdr_mysql.conf etc).

If you need any help applying the patch drop me a line and I'll see what
I can do.
