Hi,

It may be worth having a look to see if things work now - since v1.41.2.3 
of src/sys/kern/kern_linker.c - but I'm guessing.

I'm still not in a position to get to the bottom of the problem as I 
have no fxp cards here.

The machines on which I run pppoe have none of the modules linked 
into the kernel - everythings auto-loaded at run time by ppp or 
pppoed.  I tend to run a -stable pppoed server on an ed NIC and 
several -current clients on ep/ed/wi hardware - all of which doesn't 
have any problems in the pppoe area....
