asterisk users - Aug 2010 - billsec exceeds duration on some calls

Hi

I'm having a problem with Asterisk 1.6.2.9 with the MySQL cdr addon.

With some calls, the value in the `billsec` field in the CDR is exceeding the 
value in the `duration` field.

I didn't think this was supposed to happen?  Our old installation  (some 
ancient version, sorry not available)  always had `billsec` <= `duration`.

The problem does not seem to be evenly distributed among extensions.

If you need any additional information, please let me know.

I'd love to know what circumstance caused that.  I agree that this should
not
occur.
