As some one who went down a similar road a year (or is it two now) back 
and learnt a hell of a lot, but didn't get to the final line very well 
(crawling, panting, with bloody knees wasn't the objective) ... I'd also 
recommend you try the PA168 chipset which has its source available ...

Asterisk, the PBX, on a teeny RISC won't really help you with a phone, 
since * beauty is in its multi-functionality, switching, codec/protocol 
translation, call handling and interfacing to other apps on a *NIX box ... 
none of which you really require on a phone ... what you need is a stable, 
tested and reliable IAX or SIP stack, like others have mentioned on this 
list ... good luck
