PPTP is supported, with one exception:

PPTP aliasing does not work when more than one internal client connects to
the same external server at the same time, because PPTP requires a single
TCP control connection to be established between any two IP addresses.
connect to the same remote peer at a time.

I would suggest to update to 4.1-STABLE, it contains some minor PPTP fixes
for libalias(3).
