Awesome, that did the trick w/out having to futz with an IVR.  I don't
suppose it really makes any difference what order these lines appear in
your voicemail.conf?  Here's how I slipped it into my existing
extension.conf

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[inbound]

exten => <redacted>,1,goto(from-broadvoice|s|1)

[from-broadvoice]
;screen for unwanted telemarketing calls
exten => s,1,PrivacyManager
;
;  We ring extensions 101, 102 and 103
;  at the same time, and whoever answers first gets the call. If there
;  is no answer after 20 seconds, then send the call to voicemail with
;  the unavailable message. If all phones are unavailable, send the
;  call to the busy message.
exten => s,2,Dial(SIP/101&SIP/102&SIP/103,20)
exten => s,3,Voicemail(u101)
exten => s,4,Hangup
exten => s,103,Voicemail(b101)
exten => s,104,Hangup

;Enable voicemail access by pressing * during greeting
exten => a,1,VoicemailMain
exten => a,n,Hangup

; Always put these two extensions in any "main" context that handles
; call processing, for good form and graceful hangups.
exten => i,1,Hangup
exten => h,1,Hangup
