Except that, at least in my case, /dev/ppp was not created.  In fact,
when I ran "make kernel", no files were updated in the kernel tree.  The
only place I found any reference to the same was in ~Documentation.txt.
(pre-2.3.9)  If I hadn't remembered seeing something on the linux-ppp
list a while back; I wouldn't have thought to look there or even known
that /dev/ppp was required.

  For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit
within him?  In the same way, no one knows the thoughts of God except
the Spirit of God.  We have not received the spirit of the world but the
Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given
us.
