I would like to use pppd to create a connection to a generic android device.

I'd like the user to be able to enabled USB debugging, connect to my platform, 
and then use adb ppp to connect.  

>From what I can tell, the default android kernel supports this. (CONFIG_PPP

The problem is that pppd is not setuid.  So it cannot open /dev/tty.  That 
makes pppd pretty useless unless the phone is rooted.

Can I create an apk to install a setuid pppd? 

Regards
Steve
