Description mranner 2000-04-22 15:20:01 UTC

When pppd is invoked via kppp, sometimes pppd does not stop and hang up
the modem line after disconnecting in kppp. If I kill kppp or turn off
the busy modem, the system halts (going down on signal 15, no crash and no
panic)

How-To-Repeat: Use kppp, after longer connections and every second or third start,
kppp dies with an signal 6 and pppd does not end.

Does this problem still occur in newer versions of FreeBSD, 
such as 4.3-RELEASE?
