>Environment:

	System build with "make world" from a FreeBSD-2.0.5-RELEASE
	system.

>Description:

	As I switched from FreeBSD-2.0.5-RELEASE to this 2.2-SNAP
	I found that behaviour of pppd (unintentionally?) changed.
	In 2.0.5, pppd correctly daemonized and made a default route
	(see my invocation of pppd below). Now, pppd does not become a
	background process, and it does not add a default route. Further,
	I got following message in /var/log/messages:
	Sep 24 13:03:35 cabulja pppd[1199]: CCP: timeout sending Config-Requests

>How-To-Repeat:

	My invocation of pppd is as follows:

	pppd /dev/cuaa1 38400 crtscts defaultroute netmask 255.255.255.0
		noipdefault passive mru 1500 debug domain herceg.de

	There is no /etc/ppp/options

>Fix:

	Workaround:
	Send pppd to background and start explicity
		/sbin/route add default $5
	in /etc/ppp/ip-up
