I, as a user, am perfectly legit when I link Asterisk and Open H323. I don't think anybody will disagree with that. Then how can distributing a build shell script which serves that *completely legal* purpose be deemed illegal? Just because it pisses a few off? Come on...
'illegal' is the wrong term, please stop using it. There is no legality involved.
Whether you are allowed to do that or not depends on the language in the OpenH.323 license; if it does not allow its libraries to be linked with GPL software (for whatever reason), then you do not have the right to do that, regardless of whether you distribute the result or not.
In this case, since the licenses for OpenSSL and OpenH.323 are "more free" than the GPL, I don't think that an end-user doing this linking is violating the license of either Asterisk or the add-on package.
