I also can confirm this problem. My latest good kernel from 24 of Jul. 
First time I saw this problem was 29 of Jul. Each time world, kernel and 
mpd (I use it for PPPoE connection) was rebuild and installed. I have 
SiS Fast Ethernet card (sis). As Peter I can't see nothing interesting 
in mpd log.

Jul 30 10:31:13 bbnest ppp: [plala] PPPoE connection timeout after 9 seconds
Jul 30 10:31:13 bbnest ppp: [plala] device: DOWN event in state OPENING
Jul 30 10:31:13 bbnest ppp: [plala] device is now in state DOWN
Jul 30 10:31:13 bbnest ppp: [plala] link: DOWN event
Jul 30 10:31:13 bbnest ppp: [plala] LCP: Down event
Jul 30 10:31:13 bbnest ppp: [plala] device: OPEN event in state DOWN
Jul 30 10:31:13 bbnest ppp: [plala] pausing 4 seconds before open
Jul 30 10:31:13 bbnest ppp: [plala] device is now in state DOWN
Jul 30 10:31:17 bbnest ppp: [plala] device: OPEN event in state DOWN
Jul 30 10:31:17 bbnest ppp: [plala] pausing 2 seconds before open
Jul 30 10:31:17 bbnest ppp: [plala] device is now in state DOWN
Jul 30 10:31:20 bbnest ppp: [plala] device: OPEN event in state DOWN
Jul 30 10:31:20 bbnest ppp: [plala] device is now in state OPENING
...<and so on>...
And if I start mpd manually I can see on the console one extra message like

[plala] IPCP: peer address cannot be zero

All the above obtained with

    log +lcp +bund +chat +phys +iface +ipcp +frame

set in apropriate section of mpd.conf. What else? I didn't touch 
net.graph.nonstandard_pppoe and can not say if my provider make use 3Com 
hardware.

All the best,
Alexander.
