Same here (in France), because operators allow others to use their *DSL
networks as a transport service, PPP is used along with Radius realms to
create a tunnel from the DSL subscriber to the tiny-operator L2TP LNS.

Well, considering all the required changes just to remove the
POSIX/unix-dependencies, file system I/O, and so on, this is an
impossible goal to achieve.
And I am not talking about features I added which pppd does not support,
like having multiple PPP sessions running concurrently in the same
process, which require no global variables everywhere and passing a
context to all functions... while pppd use statically here and here the
element number 0 of the PPP interface table. I kid you not.
