Not to detract from your point about testing vs.
current, but you could have fixed your connection
problems to download the updated ppp package by:

% pacman -Rd libpcap
% pacman -A
/var/cache/pacman/pkg/libpcap-0.9.5-1.pkg.tar.gz
% /etc/rc.d/adsl start
% pacman -Sw ppp
% pacman -S libpcap ppp
 
It's a good idea not to be too aggressive with the -Sc
option :P
