Of course, having sent that I realised how to do it. In /etc/sudoers:

> Cmnd_Alias RELOAD_SIP = asterisk -rx sip\ reload

And then on the command line:

> sudo asterisk -rx sip\ reload

And thus the problem is solved. For the moment. The next step in my adventure is invoking that sudo command from a Perl script.
