eth0 never gets an IP address in my situation.
Are you 'forcing' an IP address on via 'ip-up' or something?
RP-PPPOE assigns an IP address to ppp0, not eth0.
After 'normal' install of rp-pppoe-3.5 ;-)
Run: I put adsl-start in my /etc/rd.d/rc.local script.
I edited no files (other than rc.local) to get RP-PPPOE to work.

This how it works for me. Perhaps your is different. But....
Again I mention that the eth# device that attaches to the DSL modem
does not have an IP address. Ala:
This is my LAN NIC:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:20:AF:10:63:D3

It is my ppp# device that gets an IP address from my DSL-ISP provider:
ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
