can you please post a compile log, it works fine here, even with 2.6.3

Please also post all of your PPP configuration options in your kernel config.  This can be found in Device Drivers -> Networking Support under the PPP Support menu.  9 times out of 10 you probably forgot to turn on one of the options there (like async).
