I was thinking down the same lines... Actually got a log from him just now, here's a link.
http://pastebin.com/9F74rHHh Don't fully understand it all, but I get the jist of it. My question for those who may have more experience with PPP on linux is I see that it's showing pppd as getting signal 15 (sigterm), then it's showing an error. Is it getting sigterm because of the error, or the error because of the sigterm? If it's getting sigterm because of the error was a bit thrown off because it's showing out of order, but I've seen this behavior in logging before.
