Actually, the RFC says
Description
This Configuration Option may be sent to inform the peer that the
implementation can receive larger frames, or to request that the
peer send smaller frames. If smaller frames are requested, an
implementation MUST still be able to receive 1500 octet frames in
case link synchronization is lost.
Default
1500
But it _does_ seem that ppp no longer works with a mtu/mru lower than 1500
(at least the compressors Lose Sync).
