Apparently, that version of Asterisk originally comes from the OpenWrt
world, and includes a bunch of patches applied to the Asterisk source
code before compiling it into a package.
Since it's part of the official firmware provided by the manufacturer,
I guess it's been reworked to run OK in that restricted environment.

I do, intend, though, to find some kind of watchdog to monitor
processes and memory, and restart them if necessary.

Thanks for pointing this out.
