[Freeswitch-users] easy way to crash freeswitch

[Anthony Minessale]

This was a recursion error caused by calling stream file from an input
callback thus streaming a file in the middle of the top level stream file
who in turn collected input and did the same so on and so forth.  So every
time you type 1 you added a bunch of calls to the stack recursively until
you used up all the stack memory and it aborted.

There is a patch in tree now that only allows you to nest 25 times before
it gets mad but really you should avoid doing this at all if you can help
it.
