I had multiple chatscript stuff lying around from previous version of ppp
that didn't get cleaned up on upgrade.  I had to fix the group owner on
/etc/chatscripts and my unprivileged user can now run pon.  Also, verified
that my ip-up and ip-up.d/* scripts were being run by touching a file.  I
had some "user error" in my own scripts :).

Thanks to all who responded with help!
