lwIP builds if PPP_SERVER is enabled, meaning the auth layer and 
PAP/CHAP(MD5+MS)/EAP sub-layers probably work, I previously ported all 
the code enclosed by PPP_SERVER ifdef to lwIP, this is obviously not 
tested at all.

However, some work is still required to add a way to get logins and 
passwords for authenticating clients. pppd code using 
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets and /etc/ppp/chap-secrets is obviously disabled. 
There is some malloc() to fix IIRC and probably other Linux/POSIX-calls 
which should be removed/reimplemented as well.

At last, but not least, work is required to add passive interface 
support to PPP itself (in our ppp.c) and PPP sub layers, HDLC-like 
framing for PPPoS, Ethernet for PPPoE and UDP for PPPoL2TP. 
(PPPOE_SERVER is one of them).
