well i compiled the pppd and linked it against the uclibc some time
ago. manuel nova writes:

There was some discussion on the list a while back about pppd.
After fixing (sig)longjmp on i386, ppp-2.3.11 builds with some minor
changes.

I commented out tzset in chat.c
I added #include <stdlib.h> in pppdump.c
I grabbed getlogin.c from libc-5.3.12 and utmp.c from tinylogin for
objects
needed by pppd.

As I said, it now builds.  I haven't had time to _test_ it though.  ;-)

and this is my result:

i succeeded in compiling the ipppd 2.3.4 against the uclibc. i left out
the ms chap stuff and had to make some changes, e.g. i had to change the
netipx/ipx.h - so i copied it into the directory and did the changes
there. also the updwtmp function is missing but there is an alternative
code inside for non glibc > 2.

hope this helps,
