In the SIP rfc, only ONE 200ok is handled by the finite state
machine. Th other must be handled by what it called the "TU" (which
is the application above osip: linphone). A patch exist for this
and osip & linphone can be compiled to handle retransmissions
of ACK when a 2xx retranmission is received.

BUT: a real UA should be able to understand that a new 200ok can
come from a new User Agent and create a new SIP dialog. Linphone
don't handle those new 200ok...
