I feel so unliked ;-)   Seriously though, mine was a very ugly hack to
get things working again for me.   Most of the DSL aggregators here
are Juniper ERXes which do not play nice with FreeBSD's PPPoE.

I think Brian re worked the LQR portion at least from looking at the
commit messages

It seems he will be MFC'ing his changes in another week or so.
