<net-dialup/ppp-2.4.4-r11 should block =sys-apps/baselayout-2* (or maybe >=sys-apps/baselayout-2.0.0_alpha1). Earlier versions of ppp don't have defaultmetric support which baselayout-2's pppd script uses.
Please mark ppp-2.4.4 stable. Changes occured since -r9: - pppd creates /dev/ppp device when it doesn't already exist (bug 163098) - new defaultmetric option (now it doesn't fail to add the default route when a default route already exists but has a different metric than the one selected by this new option) - depend on gtk-2 instead gtk-1 (bug 189350) - better ip-{up,down} scripts (bug 190143)
