I found out what the reason for this was: It appears that
pppd was trying to find out what the IP address of ppp0 is
by looking at /etc/hosts, which had an entry for the host,
which was meant for eth0.  Adding noipdefault as an option
to pppd solved the problem.

I still have other problems but I hope to investigate a
little more before asking for help.:-)
