Great!

This could really have been some (?versioning?) problem. You don't
happen to be able to test with new kernel and the older userland?
The older pppoe bits would suffice, you don't need to downgrade
whole tree.

A change was committed by Martin recently to the kernel pppoe
code which could have fixed the problem you saw.
