Do they get reported if you ``set log +tcp/ip'' ?  Also, please make 
sure you've got the very latest version of ppp (000523 from my web 
site or from people.freebsd.org/~brian) as I've just committed a 
forgotten patch that may be relevant (although I don't think it will 
be).

If the latest ppp code doesn't show the data in the logs, I'd suspect 
the problems in libalias....
