I should mention that pppd's own dial-on-demand feature seems to work
surprisingly well now.
pon starts up pppd, it hangs around waiting for an outgoing packet, then
dials out.
poff kills off the pppd process, disabling dial-on-demand.
Turns out it's really easy to set up: add one line ('demand') to
/etc/ppp/peers/provider.
