It's causing problems on several fronts, and even has difficulty talking to freebsd-current's pppd. I think Joerg committed a hack to -current so that it would no longer trip up iijppp, but I dont recall for sure. iijppp is going to have trouble talking to terminal servers, etc that have hardware stac compression. -Peter
