I'd like to see this as soon as possible, myself! :-) This iij-ppp is just required tunnel device in kernel and good examples for configuration and TeX papers. But unfortunatlly, Tex papers is written Japanese. Indeed, I just porting it to my 2.1-depvelpment last weekend. And I report it to author and asking to deliver to 2.1-development tree. Of course, He accepts to do this for us without hesitation. So I would like to put it also 2.1-development tree as soon as possible.
