As reported here: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/39112, I can no longer connect
to my pptp server since upgrading ppp to 2.4.6 a few days ago.
The error in my logs is fairly clear as to why:
> Apr 24 22:46:07 srv pptpd[29775]: CTRL: Client w.x.y.z control connection
> started
> Apr 24 22:46:07 srv pptpd[29775]: CTRL: Starting call (launching pppd,
> opening GRE)
> Apr 24 22:46:07 srv pppd[29776]: Plugin /usr/lib/pptpd/pptpd-logwtmp.so is
> for pppd version 2.4.5, this is 2.4.6
> Apr 24 22:46:07 srv pptpd[29775]: GRE: read(fd=6,buffer=b776e480,len=8196)
