Solved is probably over stating what I've done, but PPP is now working, 
it required me to build my own kernel - Using the source ftp'd from 
netbsd.org on Wed, and the SA110 system config file unchanged (apart 
from removing most of the SCSI card drivers)

What I did was to remove the #if and #ifdef (and corresponding 
#endif's) that related to PPP in irqhandler.c, so that the code was 
always included (why I tried this I dont know). It now all works hunky 
dory (Hopefully someone with more kernel source knowledge can work out 
why this makes a difference).

Except that I'm getting a rather a lot of ibuf overflows (about 300 
per syslog message), although the silo overflows are dramatically 
reduced from when I last got PPP working (1.1 beta)

Cheers,

Simon.,
