Thanks for the confirmation (it is helpful!).
I found the problem and that is that rp-pppoe requires
PF_PACKET sockets, which are disabled on my kenrel.
I'd really like to avoid this. It seems rp-pppoe uses
packet sockets to get the inteface number. Anybody knows
if this can be avoided with a bit of hacking?
Otherwise, we should mention that Kernel PPPoE depends
on PF_PACKET :(
And improve the error mesages of rp-pppoe.

Now when I type
pppd eth0
I get
unrecognized option 'eth0'
But wasn't the plugin supposed to enable this device?
If I use this script in /etc/ppp/peers/mydsl
#
# PPP over Ethernet options (using roaring pinguin external program)
#
plugin rp-pppoe.so
It work for me with this exact line
plugin rp-pppoe.so eth0
...
Then you should be able to do
pppd call mydsl
