It's the way I solved the same problem. All interfaces are carped but
pppoe. I use ifstated to track carp status.
  If the master goes down, then shutdown isakmpd and pppoe
  If the slave goes up, then activate pppoe and wait till fully
    functionnal (got an ip address)
  If the pppoe link become OK, start isakmpd and reapply pf just in case

For the moment, I didn't have any issues on the primary :)
