I've done both setups, started with terminating PPPOE on the pfSense box, moved to terminating on the router so I could work on CARP and am back to terminating on pfSense because my Cayman died.

I have DSL with 5 static IPs through SBC. I've also been a FreeBSD user

The 5 statics are actually a /29 block, and the IP info is passed down
through the PPP session. In order to use the statics on other machines,
I have to use the nat functions in the PPP daemon and assign a public IP
to a private IP. Here is an example from my ppp.conf on how this is done:
nat enable yes
nat same_ports yes
nat addr 192.168.1.5 1.2.3.4
nat addr 192.168.1.6 1.2.3.5
This is the only way I was able to assign those public IPs to another
box. I could not get it to work using natd.
Will pfsense be able to do this? I installed 82.4 on a test machine
just to get a feel for the interface and didnt really see any provision
for it.
Any idea how something like this would work?
Thanks for your time.
