asterisk users - May 2010 - Wierd behavior of illegal extension

Suppose I have a subroutine (called by Gosub) S that's called from a macro
M and there's a goto to an illegal extension in S.  That does go to
'i' in
S but seems to pop the macro stack so that when there's a later fallthrough
in M, the calls hangs up rather than returning to the caller of M.

Is this a bug or a feature?

You really shouldn't be calling a Gosub routine from Macro.  We've
already had
to deal with some really odd interactions between the two.  If you're going
to
make the jump to Gosub, go completely over and only use Gosub.  Don't use
Macro in conjunction with Gosub.
