If you would have actually read Kristian's first post you would have 
seen the bug tracker entry that was in the email.  The entry was 
considered 'closed' because the developer thought this was a feature 
request, not a bug.  Feature requests are not accepted into the bug 
tracker unless they have a patch associated with them.  I'll repost that 
link here so you can read the discussion in that entry.

The thing here is Kristian is willing to pay money and provide testing 
resources to have this fixed (properly) and become part of the code that 
will benefit everyone.  His request is not a blind "add this feature for 
me because I'm a leach".  Anyone using Asterisk in a business 
environment should care about this and want it resolved.
