asterisk users - Aug 2010 - IAX2 - Separate Signaling and Media?

Greetings all-

Here's an odd question. Supposedly, IAX2 now has the ability to operate with
signaling and media in separate streams, very much like SIP. I've read about
this feature here[1] and there[2], but I have yet to see how to actually
implement or test it. There are no options in the iax.conf sample configs with
Asterisk.

All suggestions welcome, except those telling me to jump off a bridge because
separated signaling and media makes IAX pointless when compared to SIP. :-)

Ugh, and let me specify references as originally intended:
