Thanks for that pointer... "I knew that!" :) but had forgotten it.
Sadly, the Linksys firmware is not clever enough to load its own file:

<Call_Pickup_Code
group="Regional/Vertical_Service_Activation_Codes">*37</Call_Pickup_Code>
<Call_Pickup_Code group="SPA932/General">*98</Call_Pickup_Code>

When this is loaded, the group= parameter is ignored, and the first
value is written twice, making it impossible to provision the 2nd
value :(

Ho hum.
