IBM Aptiva P-II 300 MHz 96MB RAM 600MB Swap (IDE), all hard disks with
lots of free space, ppp with serial FIFO at ELSA TanGo 2000 (ISDN
"modem").

no other problems known till now

>Description:

Very difficult: PPP crashes and throws core after a short time of usage
- as of the (unchanged) selfmade distribution CD-ROM, or even after
being recompiled from /usr/src again. After being re-compiled with
CFLAGS="-g -pipe" for debugging purposes, there are no such problems,
i.e. it is no post-mortem debugging possible (>six weeks of trial).
Multiply tried since 3.3-RELEASE, problem remains the same. PR 14145 &
fix possibly reduced the frequency.

Known since 3.3-RELEASE (not the pre-3.3 testing versions before).
Maybe a compiler/code incompatibility problem?

>How-To-Repeat:

Unknown. Try using the optimized executable of ppp and you might see.

>Fix:
	
Unknown.
