Description:
 Twinkle is a soft phone for your voice over IP
communcations using the SIP protocol. You can use
it for direct IP phone to IP phone communication
or in a network using a SIP proxy to route your
calls.
Some of the features offered are call waiting,
call hold, 3-way conference call, call transfer,
and call reject. It supports STUN or a statically
configured public IP address for NAT traversal.
When using STUN, it will send keep-alive packets
to keep NAT bindings alive.

Bug fixes
---------
- If the far end holds a call and then resumes a
call while Twinkle has
  been put locally on-hold, then Twinkle will
start recording sound from
  the mic and send it to the far-end while
indicating that the call is
  still on-hold.
- Crash on no-op SDP in re-INVITE
- Twinkle exits when it receives SIGSTOP followed
by SIGCONT
- call release cause in history is incorrect for
incoming calls.

Build improvements

- Break dependency on X11/xpm.h
