Your real PSTN network scenario most likely requires an STP to split the
messages to two end points ... once again Asterisk with libss7 is a
Signalling End Point (SEP) and it has no routing functionality as STP

A signalling link is a point-to-point connection between two SS7 point
codes and every node has it's own (one and only) point code. If the
received message is not for it's own point code and the node has no
routing functionality - it should be dropped (which the code above
does). The only way to have two point codes is to have an Alias Point
Code for a clustered node, but again it requires routing and clustering
capabilities which Asterisk and libss7 does not have yet.

The ss7 code is split between libss7 and Asterisk (chan_dahdi and
sig_ss7) - that's where ss7_new() is called, when a new linkset is
created. What you suggest is the same as to define another linkset with
the same sigchan, which is not possible.
Instead of checking ss7->pc we should scan a list of routes attached to
the linkset and to add routing functionality, which is not so simple and
will require quite a lot of code changes.
