Is this the user-mode pppoe or the in-kernel pppoe?  IOW, are you
using the pppoe channel type, or do you have the usermode program that
runs pppd behind a pty?

And, do you have any TCP connections open over the link when you take
it down?  What version of pppd is it?

Has anyone been able to replicate this without using pppoe?  The type
of channel shouldn't make any difference, but I just tried ppp over a
pty and it worked fine (except that Deflate is broken, but that's
another problem).

I have DSL and I could connect it up to a system running 2.5.  Maybe
I'll go try that now...

Paul.
