There are errors reported in syslog that the transaction was not released.
And I'm free to buy a car then use a bike. It's not an error to do so... :P

OpenSIPS should be able to detect when the script finished processing, 
if the transaction that was created was also used in any way or not. If 
it was not, it should issue a t_release automatically after the script 
returns without issuing any error to syslog.
