Or somewhere between on the network: we used to see this quite often on
several long distance connections via an overrun call-by-call provider.
A few Instant redials got the call through, most of the time.

Yes, this should solve the problem (worked for us). Btw.: same happened
back in the bisdnd days.

I think we should somehow arrange isdnd to flush outgoing interface queues
when it gives up an outgoing call attempt. Is there a special ioctl for
this, or should it SIOCSIFFLAGS to toggle IFF_UP down and back up?
