For some reason this message was sent to me explicitly, so I'll respond.
Slrip by default does use SLIP, but if you call it with the -P option,
it will use PPP.  For instance, for a 33.6 modem, use the following line
to invoke slirp:

slirp -P -b 115200

That will set up a PPP connection at 115200 bps.  If I've done something
wrong, I'm sorry.  So I hope this message makes it to everyone it's
supposed to.
