No.
With 2.2 kernels we used to patch the sources with grsecurity patch(es?)

I guess you looking for something like this one:
tcpdump -i eth0 proto 47 -nl

I noticed the following problem with PPTP NAT on 2.4 kernels

different source ip I had to wait a timeout to expire to get PPTP traffic
NATed properly.
Hope this helps,
