During testing, it was discovered that having chan_sip
export global symbols was problematic.
The biggest problem was that load order was affected.
Trying to use realtime could be problematic since in
all likelihood the necessary realtime driver(s) would
not be loaded before chan_sip.
In addition, it was found that it was impossible to
use the Digium Phone Module for Asterisk since it
must be loaded before chan_sip since it must hook
into chan_sip's configuration parsing.
The solution is to use a virtual table in the same
manner that other modules in Asterisk do, like
app_voicemail.
