I had the same problem with ppp unstable.
I also tried "pon xisp_ttyS0" (xisp peer file located in
/etc/ppp/peer) and pppd failed with a SEGV.
Furthermore, the syslog shows that pppd tries to open
"xisp_dial^B^H". These are genuine control characters.
Finally I downgraded ppp to stable version and it works fine.
I'm going to submit a bug to ppp as soon as I connect to the net from
home.
