[cisco-voip] Wacky telco issues... cannot call the UK

I believe there is something in the spec of some of the ISDN switch
types that dictates this change.  I believe the change is along the
lines of 'strip the 011 and put international in the plan or type', by
default.  This is an interop issue and can also be fixed sometimes by
changing the switch type.  Basically the router is trying to play
nicely in terms of interop, but sometimes the other vendor doesn't
like that.  You would have a problem either way, and this is just the
less likely scenario.  You can blame the ISDN people for that :)
