  On nix alone, it wouldn't help.  But Wireshark also runs on doze,
and Kevin says the pcap library can actually monitor Link Control
Protocol exchanges.  If everything works out, you might be able to use
Wireshark on doze to capture the details of a PPP session which works,
and then compare that to a capture made on nix, to see what the
difference is.
