True aggregating is difficult to achieve. I have one setup running that uses 2 OpenVPN tunnels ending on different IPs of the same OpenVPN server and link them together with 'eql' devices. This increases the bandwidth inside the tunnels for different connections, but a single connection still doesn't show a benefit. Setting it up is quite a bit of hassle as you have to tell OpenVPN the IPs of the other tunnel are just fine inside as well as the linux network devices to accept 'martian' packages by setting the involved devices rp_filter to 0 in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/rp_filter. The setup is non-trivial and you won't be rewarded with overwhelming stability according to my experience.
