If your 1.0.9 install is (on the /usr/src/asterisk tree) complete, you might
unpack the CVS source somewhere else other than /usr/src (maybe
/usr/local/src or /usr/src/cvs). Most importantly, PLAN AHEAD. It would
seem that the more Asterisk evolves, the less-tolerant it is natually
becoming to "obsoleted" methods and code. Little things like commas where
pipes should be could be a pain.
Also, think to make sure you didn't install, and depend on a patch (spandsp
for example, the patches are very version-dependant).
Copy /etc/asterisk, /var/lib/asterisk, /var/spool/asterisk and
/usr/lib/asterisk to a backup location FIRST.
I remember when I upgraded to CVS-HEAD back in mid August. I learned the
hard way to triple-check the little things.
If you copy all the files (maybe a restore script would be handy), you
should be able to just run a make install from each source-tree's directory
to return it to normal. Oh, don't forget to erase the contents of
/usr/lib/asterisk/modules before you 'make install' new ones.

improvements sound enticing. Can anyone recommend
a) A procedure to cleanly upgrade from STABLE to HEAD
b) A procedure to ensure I can back out and go back to 1.0.9 easily
I have looked on the wiki but couldn't find much about this.....

The easiest thing, I'd think, would be just to install the HEAD with an
entirely different basedir and don't touch your existing install at all.
That way it is a simply matter of running a different executable to
switch between the old and the new. That's what I did here, at any rate,
and it worked nicely, but my living-room is certainly not a production
environment. Stay tuned for possible contradictions from the pros.
