Anyone interested in running the "fixed" version?  It seems ok on my machine.
All I've done is made the "work" happen in a call from the top level
read-a-packet loop, and triggered it via a variable that's set when an
alarm happens.

If anyone's interested, there's a compiled copy on freefall in
    ~brian/src/usr.sbin/ppp

Cheers
