Ah, you didn't say anything about AGI, so I gave you a solution just
using the dialplan.

If you are writing an AGI program to do this, you might just as well have
a loop around a WAIT FOR DIGIT command and check each digit as it comes,
collecting numeric digits until you have ten of them, or jumping to the
registration section if you get a *.
