I have my dynamic dns update script in it, so I would really like to have it working. I use pon and poff to make a ppp connection to my provider. Does anyone have a suggestion? Is this a known bug/feature or could my woody be broken?

How do you conclude that /etc/ppp/ip-up is not run?
Most probably there's something wrong with your script,
and thus _that_ is not being run.
Note that:
- there are restrictions to the name of the script in such a directory
- the script must start with a hashbang (#!/bin/sh for example)
- the script must be chmod +x
- the PATH while executing the script may not be what you expect
