The problem with a user-mode ppp process not terminating when started
by mgetty (AutoPPP) has been solved by Brian Somers (brian@awfulhak.org).
He fixed a phase ordering issue; now ppp properly terminates returning
control of the port to the mgetty process. The new binaries/sources can be 
downloaded from 

   http://www.freebsd.org/~brian

According to Brian, the code with the incorrect phase ordering was 
released with 2.2.5. If you're going to implement a user-mode ppp
server with mgetty, follow the recommendations of the FAQ and download
the latest version.

Many thanks to Brian for his guidance and efforts! It's this kind of
response and cooperation that contributes to FreeBSD's success.
