Unfortunately I have limited email contact righ tnow.. but a couple
of things come to mind..

- Is is possible to get a tcpdump of before and after? One thing I
  could imagine is that the new ng_ether may behave differently than
  the old code with respect to overwriting the source Ethernet address
  (the new code shouldn't unless the driver does). But I don't think
  there should be any difference. 'tcpdump not ip' should tell.

- Regarding the libnetgraph change, this supposedly fixed a bug,
  so possibly the code in ppp(8) is relying on broken behavior?
  Where is this code anyway, I don't see a pppoe.c in usr.sbin/ppp..
  I can take a look.

-Archie
