Rearming the timer may be trickier than it looks. If you have a spiraled 
call, then you must rearm the timer in all dialogs, else it won't help.
Correlating between the spiraled dialogs in script is not trivial, 
especially if you do not know how many times it has spiraled. OTOH you 
should generate BYE messages only from one of the spiraled dialogs.
