OK, I got hold of the G729 Key that was issued to us by digium recently
and have now successfully registered the codec on the host. However, it
still comes back with the following warning on the console after a restart:

[codec_g729a.so] => (Annex A/B (floating point) G.729 Codec (optimized
for i686))

I can see the licence there (10 channel), but it looks like the codec
does not want to inititalize properly.
