I've found a partial solution to the problem - use the 2.2.16 kernel,
but load the 2.2.14 ppp module. You can do this by compiling 2.2.14,
taking /lib/modules/2.2.14/net/ppp.o and loading it into a text editor
to change the kernel version from 2.2.14 to 2.2.16 (this step isn't
really necessary, but it stops you getting an error message about wrong
kernel version - you can just insmod -f the module if you want instead),
then putting the modified 2.2.14 ppp.o into /lib/modules/2.2.16/net
instead of the one from 2.2.16. Kind of ugly, but it does work OK.
Another thing that may be possible, though I haven't managed it, would
be to drop all the 2.2.14 ppp code into the 2.2.16 kernel tree and
compile.
