As always YMMV. The result is affected to a great extent by
provisioning. Which is obvious and yet hasn't been mentioned.
One way causes a call setup request to be sent even though the switch
knows that there are no available B channels, which permits the terminal
to make it's own decision as to the disposition of the call, e.g.,
refuse it with cause code 17 which _should_ cause some switch in the
call path (the originating one usually) to generate a normal busy tone.
