[arm-allstar] using BBB GPIO running asterisk v1.2.1

[David McGough]

Hi Neil,

GPIO doesn't work at all in the BBB 1.2.1 release, due to Linux Kernel 
limitations. That's one thing we're trying to fix for the 1.3, which is 
waiting on me at this point....

card, but why do that as the BBB has plenty of gpio and we can buy break 
out boards for the headers. However I do not have the desire to recompile 
the code, so does anybody have any macro scripts to share that can toggle 
the BBB GPIO in asterisk?
