David doesn't want the new PPP, insisting that I fix existing hdlc_ppp.c + syncppp.c combo instead, and that there are related bugs in drivers using syncppp.c alone (not hdlc_ppp) which I have to fix as well.
Unfortunately I'm unable to do that. Even if I could add another workaround to hdlc_ppp to make it work with syncppp.c again, I can't fix the other drivers (if they are indeed broken) because of lack of hardware, and I can't really make significant changes to syncppp.c (to make them available to all drivers) because that could and would break those drivers.
