 I am very very sorry: till now, I am able to test your modify.
 
 1)
 I don't know how to apply the file `patch-ah` you provided.
 I try to add patch-ah into distinfo, but I am afraid of checksum 
 calculating.
 
 for example, to verify it, i test it on patch-aa
 serv01: [water] {46} sha1 patch-aa
 SHA1 (patch-aa) = 65d518f2eeede695ec2827f1a55d6cbbb87bd8ae
 
 but in distinfo:
 SHA1 (patch-aa) = 3f806e96d3c89d9d0850d6692fd8b14778bc46c4
 
 what's wrong?
 
 2)
 So, when make is done, I apply your patch-ah line by line manually,
 re-compile ppp.o, re-link pppoe and copy it to /usr/pkg/sbin/
 
 below is /var/log/messages:
