Replying to my own post:
I have done some more digging, disabling parts of configuration files
one at a time - since there is nothing useful in the console for this
problem. Turns out that if I enable the following lines in features.conf:
parkext = 700
parkpos = 701-720
context = parkedcalls
then I can't pick calls up with *8 anymore. Here is everything I have
enabled in the features.conf, just in case:
[general]
parkext = 700
parkpos = 701-720
context = parkedcalls
pickupexten = *8
[featuremap]
disconnect = *0
Can anybody think of any reason for this? Could it be something I'm
doing - or should I report it as a bug?

I have problems using the call pickup under Asterisk 1.8.4.2. I have
another Asterisk with 1.6 - and it is working fine with the same settings.
I have setup the same callgroup and pickupgroup for all extensions in
sip.conf - just to make things simple for testing. The sequence *8 seems
to be completely ignored by Asterisk - the client shows Call answered
when dialing *8 while the other phones keep on ringing (both software
and hard phone clients) - but I see nothing in the Asterisk console.
It's like the *8 sequence skips Asterisk and goes through the iax
trunks straight upstream to the trunks provider. Then weird messages
show up in the console about Max retries exceeded to host, I can't use
our IAX outgoing trunks and the only way to get things working again is
to restart Asterisk.
Am I missing something silly here?
Here is my sip.conf:

And here is a trace of a call coming in through the IAX trunk, ringing
internal sip phones 21 and 22, while I try to pick it up from 200:
