It *is* compiled in by default and it actually *is* configurable.  I've 
said this a few times in the archives, but just so that everyone knows, 
in order for it to work, 'transfer=yes' must be set in chan_dahdi.conf 
on each of the channels you would like to enable it on.

To disable it for a channel or group of channels, set 'transfer=no' 
above that group.
