asterisk users - Feb 2010 - billsec is set to duration if call is not answered

The behaviour of my Asterisk appears to have changed suddenly without
any apparent cause.
The version is use is 1.4.27.1

When a call is not answered billsec is set to duration, and calls are
charged. I can't see any change I could have
made to cause this problem. Is it something already known in Asterisk?

I have still not been able to resolve this problem. It only happens
when the call is routed through an agi script.

Whether the dialling itself is done within the AGI, or the AGI drops
into the dialplan to allow the call to originate there, the result is
the same.

Call is marked as answered and billsec is set to duration, or duration - 1.

Is that behaviour that has been observed before?
