Andrew,

I'm not sure if my problem is related to this patch, but in
2.6.8-rc2-mm1, PPPoE doesn't work for me, kernel compiled with gcc (GCC)
3.3.1 (SuSE Linux), a vanilla 2.6.7 is fine with the same compiler.

pppd[5685]: Plugin /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.1/pppoe.so loaded.
pppd[5685]: PPPoE Plugin Initialized
pppd[5685]: pppd 2.4.1 started by root, uid 0
pppd[5685]: Sending PADI
pppd[5685]: HOST_UNIQ successful match 
pppd[5685]: Failed to negotiate PPPoE connection: 25 Inappropriate ioctl for device
pppd[5685]: Exit.

A successful pppd session start, with 2.6.7, looks like this:
