Firstly, are you talking about caller ID's that look like 0000000000 
?  Are you sure that's what they are?  Try "NoOp(${CALLERIDNUM}) as 
your priority 1, and you should see the value in your console output.

Try exten =>  with the correct spacing, but that doesn't seem like it 
would make a huge difference.

Have you tried with _1XXXXXX1118/_XXX.   to see if you can get any 
matching at all working?  Be more general in what you're accepting, 
and then narrow it down.

If it continues to fail, fire up a bug in the bugtracker that inludes 
all the details.
