In my never ending quest to actually get a VoIP client working on the iPhone, I attempted to port minisip to the phone.  After spending several hours working on getting the cross compiling going, I finally loaded the libraries and the binaries onto the phone and eagerly executed  minisip only to be greated with the following:

bash-3.2# ./minisip_textui

Starting MiniSIP TextUI … welcome!

Creating TextUI
Semaphore::Semaphore: CreateSemaphore: Function not implemented
terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘SemaphoreException’
terminate called recursively
Abort trap

Damn!  So close, yet so far away.  I know audio doesn’t work yet, but if I can just get a command line SIP client to compile and run it would be an amazing first step in my mind.  Oh well, back to the lab to keep on testing, coding, and hacking to see if I can actually get a working SIP client (even without audio) on the iPhone.
