I believe the phone is supposed to be able to do it, but I haven't figured
out just how.  I've got a few in remote locations where we had picked up
a local number for "line six = direct to the phone" use, and I ended up
proxying them through the PBX here instead, which is not really that great.

So you're not crazy...  I suspect it's just a little specific config magic
that isn't quite set to what the phone wants as it stands.
