They are ppp compression modules. If you want to get rid of them, add this
in /etc/modules.conf

alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp
alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate

>From a quick look at the source, it looks like 26 is the actual
implementation of deflate, so I guess you should use that instead of
ppp-compress-24 in the alias.
