This is probably ppp-2.1.2d.tar.gz   which was uploaded on January 13.
I think it is for the 1.2.x kernel series.

I am now unable to compile the ppp network driver on two different
machines.  Both machines are using Slackware 3.0 with gcc 2.7.0 elf.
One of the machines has Slackware 3.0 installed on a recently formatted
partition which is unmodified.  Both compilations hang at the same
place.  I've tried kernel versions 1.3.56 - 1.3.59 with the same 
results.  I've searched through USENET and haven't found too many
references to this problem so I don't think it is something with
the ppp driver itself.  Something might be wrong with my gcc installation,
possibly I have messed up headers??  Perhaps I should install gcc 2.7.2??
