asterisk-bristuff deprecation: what upgrade path ?

[Diego Iastrubni]

Lets stop being lazy. Lets "DO".

I am attaching a patch (svn diff from my working copy) which has 5 new 
dpatches:
diegolocal at turing:~/Proj/pkg-voip/asterisk/trunk$ svn st
?      brisstuff-apps.patch
A      debian/patches/bristuff_app_segfault.dpatch
A      debian/patches/bristuff_app_devstate.dpatch
A      debian/patches/bristuff_app_chanspy.dpatch
A      debian/patches/bristuff_app_pickup.dpatch
A      debian/patches/bristuff_app_aliingpres.dpatch
M      debian/patches/00list
M      debian/changelog

These are the applications from the bristuff patch. Each has it's own patch (a 
single file, this was easy). It compiles here (svn-buildpackage --svn-export 
&& cd ../....../ && ./configure && make).

Please test and tell me if this is OK to commit.

I should state that I have no experience with Asterisk code. So if your cat 
gets boiled while trying to understand what happens, please don't blame me. 
It was ... dunno, but it was not me.
