Thanks everyone for the answers!
I did explored some options at the PHP level and probably will do something
in this direction, but in fact what I was really looking was something in
the Asterisk side, not in the script side.
Because in my opinion regardless of the language or AGI type, Asterisk
itself should be able to timeout a long running script and return to the
dialplan. However looks like there is nothing of this sort.....

Kind regards,
Patrick Wakano
