It seems that ppp-watch ignores PERSIST, RETRYTIMEOUT and DISCONNECTTIMEOUT values from /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp* files. Whatever I put there, it redials and does it immediately, which is wrong. I upgraded initscripts to 4.68 with no result. Also, there's a typo (wrong quotes) in /etc/rc.d/init.d/network that causes RedHat to 'disable IPv4 automatic defragmentation' on reboot/halt regardless of what is in /proc. No harm but not good nevertheless. This was not fixed in updated initscripts too.
