I have already committed the pppd changes to -current.  I've been running 
them on my own 2.2 system for a month or so, so I'm confident of putting 
them into 2.2.

David Nugent has a C program which operates as a ppplogin, which would be 
better than my ppplogin.sh.

Thanks for the offer.  I think the changes are burned in on 2.2 OK here 
at HiLink, so I'll put them in this weekend, probably.

Are there any objections to my adding gettytab entries in the ppp.9600 - 
ppp.115200 family in 2.2 and -current?
