Is really Not GPL-Compatible?
The code for ilbc is in the asterisk source code (a GPLv2 application), see codecs/ilbc
in the cvs.

If they are not compatible, will have to leave the sources.

If iaxclient will be use the ilbc codec, must use the same source code as asterisk.
To use different drafts will become a great problem in the future.

Something like in asterisk? ;)
