Well, I think I'd like to leave it, and here's why:

1) If it's not needed, it's harmless (just a little bit of extra work in the middle \
of an already expensive operation (transfer)).

2) It is needed for some reason we can't think of, so instead of breaking it to find \
that out, we just leave it and let it keep working.  :-)

stopped working properly.  This issue includes a patch that resolves the issue by \
removing a call to ast_check_hangup() from app_meetme.c.  I left that in my patch, as \
it doesn&#39;t need to be there.  However, the rest of the patch fixes this problem \
with or without the change to app_meetme.

The key difference between what happens before and after this patch is the effect of \
the END_OF_Q control frame.  After END_OF_Q is hit in ast_read(), ast_read() will \
return NULL.  With the ast_check_hangup() removed, app_meetme sees this which causes \
it to exit as intended.  Checking ast_check_hangup() caused app_meetme to exit \
earlier in the process, and the target of the redirect saw the condition where \
ast_read() returned NULL.

Removing ast_check_hangup() works around the issue in app_meetme, but doesn&#39;t \
solve the issue if another application did the same thing.  There are also other edge \
cases where if an application finishes at the same time that a redirect happens, the \
target of the redirect will think that the channel hung up.  So, I made some changes \
in pbx.c to resolve it at a deeper level.  There are already places that unset the \
SOFTHANGUP_ASYNCGOTO flag in an attempt to abort the hangup process.  My patch \
extends this to remove the END_OF_Q frame from the channel&#39;s read queue, making \
