pppoed can be told to run mpd. As long as mpd can handle treating

When a second link is established from a client, it'll invoke a new
mpd instance. Is mpd smart enough to detect this and pass the link
from one invocation to the other ?
This was one of the trickiest parts of making ppp(8) a multilink
server.
