ppp should do that too.

You don't describe exactly how you've got things set up.  Are you 
using Multi-link ppp over PPPoE links ?  If so, you'll need a very 
co-operative provider to sit at the other end.

If you're setting up 3 distinct PPPoE links and then running a 4th 
ppp session using multi-link with (say) UDP links that talk accross 
each of your PPPoE setups to a remote server which demuxes them (by 
running a similar multi-link ppp setup), then you should be able to 
get this working :0)

Feel free to post your configuration and I can see if it makes sense 
to me.
