There seem to be several; apparently there's some sort of a problem with
IPX (although I wouldn't know - I don't use it), there have been
problems compiling on 2.0.35, as the ppp.c that comes with the kernel
had a newer version code than that in the ppp distribution, and got the
make confused... then a minor typo in the "correct" version of that file
caused ppp not to compile...
The "small bug" I was referring to is a problem with demand-dialling
setups when a connection is terminated by a terminate-request from the
peer, which leads to the next connection attempt failing.
