Step 2: Initialize the DIP to the system

When starting up, a DIP should do the following:

1. Identify itself to the voice system by posting itself in the BB.
2. Set up the tracing facility.
3. Get its assigned message queue, if it is a DynaDIP.

Two C-library functions (VSstartup and startup) are available to perform the above activities. These two functions are identical, but VSstartup is used for DynaDIPs and startup for hardcoded DIPs.
