Yes, I have that that file on my other box in: /usr/bin/asterisk-config (still running 1.2.27) I could try to to change it.
I don't think I could change much except the AST_VERSION=
see below:

so I won't even print it.


My problme is that few lines in a source code needs to be modified before compiling it.  Changing the source code is a simple thing but now the ebuild needs to be   
modified as well to point to the source code; too many problems.

I think maybe it is time to dump Asterisk-ebuild version and get it from source. It is less problems and simpler solution.
