I would guess that PPPoE here is attempting to send a packet 
through the fxp device while it is administratively down, and the
fxp driver panics because it is not initialized.  This is a bug
in netgraph, it should check the status of the interface before
queuing a packet.

If this is the problem, then a workaround is to bring the interface
up (via 'ifconfig fxp0 up') before running ppp.
