I get the same oops w/ 2.4.0-test11pre7, pppd-2.3.11 and pppd-2.4.0, not
quite sure if it happens on _every_ pppd termination, but it does happen
a lot. Modutils-2.3.2[01]. ksymoops below, notice that it is preceded by
a waitpid failed, don't wether it is important or not... My kernel is
compiled on a fairly stock RH-7.0 with kgcc.
