(Added info about RFC 4638 and enabling on Linux / OpenWRT)
Getting RFC4638 on Backfire is somewhat tricky, but do-able if you're feeling like fiddling with code!
In order to make it work:
#create an OpenWRT build environment for the 10.03.1 release so you can compile the new pppd release
#adapt the pppd 2.4.4 package definition to pull the 2.4.5 package from ftp.samba.org instead - you will need to update the version to 2.4.5 and the md5sum of the downloaded package.
#Pull the ppp 2.4.5 package patches from the (currently) "trunk" release and replace the 2.4.4 patches with these. The 2.4.4 patches are too outdated to apply to ppp 2.4.5.
