from osmo-bts/src/osmo-bts-sysmo/oml.c:

static const struct sapi_dir pdtch_sapis[] = {
        { GsmL1_Sapi_Pdtch,»····GsmL1_Dir_TxDownlink },
        { GsmL1_Sapi_Pdtch,»····GsmL1_Dir_RxUplink },
        { GsmL1_Sapi_Ptcch,»····GsmL1_Dir_TxDownlink },
        { GsmL1_Sapi_Prach,»····GsmL1_Dir_RxUplink },
#if 0
        { GsmL1_Sapi_Ptcch,»····GsmL1_Dir_RxUplink },
        { GsmL1_Sapi_Pacch,»····GsmL1_Dir_TxDownlink },
#endif

I don't know exactly why it is commented out, probably because itw as
simply not used at the time?
