In this case I believe they are attempting to make a generic PPP layer
that can use a variaty of devices, rather then one PPP for modems, one for
ISDN, etc (they are also aiming for PPP to handle multilink devices)

I could be mixing up different development efforts but I think this is
what is happening.
