I occasionally see these messages too, but they don't cause my users
to be dumped - or any other apparent serious problems. Most recently
9 such messages were logged this morning during a six-minute period
about 3:25 AM square in the middle of an hour-long PPP session.
On the "things to worry about" scale, these messages are down in the
noise.
