I don't think it's fair to paint it quite so broadly.  M opinion on it is that 
I have simply failed to show them how clear things become when I can check 
ONE variable for the status of the last-run application, whether that be a 
dial, system or agi application call.

Look at the Asterisk source; it's not a mass of spaghetti code.  Saying that 
Digium thinks that structured programming is a bad idea is an exaggeration.
