I had this same problem when building this on Friday.  Apparently, the kinstall
script doesn't install the rc4.h and rc4_enc.h files, but it will _update_
them if they already exist.  The fix for me was to copy them into the
kernel build directory also before running kinstall.sh

[jasonf at eraserhead ppp-2.3.8]# cp linux/rc4.h /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/
[jasonf at eraserhead ppp-2.3.8]# cp linux/rc4_enc.c /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/

Pertaining to the other comments, I've got RPMS of kernel 2.2.9+ppp-2.3.8+mppe
together, but I am also bound by US export regulations (whine moan complain :).
I would be happy to email the RPM spec files to someone if they wanted to
collect the crypto sources to build the RPMS.
