The way I got round this with my Bellset 39 (similar to a Bellset 44) is to wire up the equivalant connections (or should that be connexions in GPO speak?) on the Telephone 232 and strap the pair that would go to the additional contacts in the gravity switch of a 248. It does mean that "speak to extn, exch held" makes a loop regardless of the placement of the handset, but otherwise it behaves as it should.
Fortunately, I managed to acquire a proper telephone 248 for my Bellset 44.
