VJ compression doesn't work too well when packets can get discarded
silently, and that may well be the situation with PPPoE, so perhaps that
explains why the freeware implementations don't support it.

In any case, I don't believe VJ compression should have to be supported
by any particular PPP implementation - it is after all an option which
can be rejected.
