A few extra notes:
When building pppd from buildroot no extra options are needed, just run 
"make pppd"

Kernel support:
In menuconfig, PPP is under device drivers/networking support.  To use a 
normal modem we only needed to set the ppp_async flag ("PPP support for 
async serial ports" option).

Setting up the device:  You may need to run

 mknod /dev/ppp c 108 0


We have had no issues with PPP.
