After much googling, I realized that /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward was
not set to 1.  I was used to this being set as the default, but the
sarge installation doesn't add an entry to /etc/sysctl.conf.  After
enabling it, things work fine.

Now, if I could just find a working patch to the ppp in Sarge to add
MPPE support, that would be wonderful.  Until then, I'm using a
precompiled ppp RPM from poptop.sourceforge.net.
