Possible Solution (Re: mpd VPN won't work after upgrade from 4.6-STABLE to 4.8-STABLE)

Re: the "protocol reject" errors; I left the original messages below
this for reference, but I'm not so much following directly onto
them...

Archie, I'm mildly embarrassed.  I just now found something you wrote
in November of last year advising the following patch to fix exactly
this problem.  I am running two 4.8-STABLE boxen, and it is not part
of /sys/netgraph/ng_ppp.c in CVS yet, apparently...

I patched ng_ppp.c, but I don't know if I can rebuild netgraph without
a make world, which takes a good 12 hours on this P166... advice on
that welcome.

Should one of us submit a PR for this, or did I miss something?

Thanks much!
