Hi,

I've made a new release of ISDN4BSD, now version 2.0.6. I4B SVN has been 
updated with new ports.

I haven't had time to look into this one yet. I will see if I can find some 
time to do this. Else keep in reminding me or if you want you can suggest a 
patch. I think we already have a DISCONNECT state, where we can go instead of 
release complete. I'm just not sure how that will interact with STATUS 
enquiry, what state we get back.

Does the Q.931 define a maximum time before we can expect a RELEASE_COMPLETE? 
When I wrote the code, I tried to simplify. What makes the case difficult is 
that we need to hold on to the call descriptor after the application has left 
it.

Fixed with some modifications. Please test updated port.
