There's no bug in hide-password bug in ppp-2.3.10. My log showed a PAP
connection for 2.3.10 with the password showing and the next PAP connection
was for 2.3.11 with the password hidden. Not thinking that the pppd run
for the 2.3.10 messages might not have used hide-password, I jumped to the
proverbial wrong conclusion. (I do PAP tests occasionally, as I did this
time, but normally connect with CHAP and no debug.)
So here hide-password works with ppp-2.3.10, and ppp-2.3.11 works with or
without hide-password since, as you pointed out, hide-password is the
default.

It's a mystery. I don't see anything that rings a bell, except there is no
"user <username>" option to get pppd to negotiate PAP. Not that it should
make any difference where you specify that.
