Hello,

It seems that a new maintainer has taken over pppd and started with merging many upstream patches that various distributions have been carrying around with them for a long time.

All patches currently in next are security stuff and no functionality. It might not be bad if this patch does not apply exactly if the new maintainer(s) found a different solution.

I believe some of the patches are rather hacky.

Best,
-Michael
