I am using the original slink, with some packages updated. I have found the problem, and it may deserve a bug fix. The problem was actually of my doing. Worldnet uses passwords with 'funny' characters so you have to enter them 'quoted'. The pppconfig program in slink instructed you to do this, but the one in potato did not mention this fact. After some head scratching I remembered this and then I hand edited the ppp and chapscripts with 'quoted' password strings. Voila! Guess my memory access time is measured in tens of minutes :-|
