Ok; my apologies to the guy @gmx.net I had suspected.

Please file a bug report against pppconfig. I don't think the '=' belongs
there, and neither does the domainname. And nameserver should probably
be lowercase.
Debian's use of pppconfig is a riot anyway. Just figured out that you need
to keep the name of the setup (default 'provider') unchanged when running
pppconfig during the initial system setup, because the install script will
just call 'pon' (implying 'provider') without arguments afterwards.

Both shouldn't matter.
