Description:When I do something like:
exten => 102,n,While($[ ${DB(foo/callforward)} > 1 ])  

I get:
Nov  7 13:56:10 WARNING[7836]: ast_expr2.fl:176 ast_yyerror: ast_yyerror(): syntax error: syntax error, unexpected TOK_GT, expecting TOK_MINUS or TOK_COMPL or TOK_LP or TOKEN; Input:

I see similar issues on ExecIF, using the same parser I assume.  I did a quick search of the bugtracker and didn't see this reported elsewhere.

That would mean that the associated DB key does not exist.  The usual method for getting around this is the following:

exten => 102,n,While($[ 0${DB(foo/callforward)} > 1 ])

Since octal interpretation has been turned off, this works as you want.
