i don't know about this one.

yes - there are patches for ppp-2.3.11. the relevant links and
information can be found on this page:
http://www.vibrationresearch.com/pptpd/example.html

apply both the ppp-2.3.11-openssl-0.9.5-mppe.patch and
the ppp_mppe_compressed_data_fix.diff patch.

the ppp-2.3.11-openssl-0.9.5-mppe.patch contains the
rc4* files. you might recall in earlier patches you had to get
these rc4* files from another archive and copy them across
manually. no longer :-)

other patches worth applying:

- segfault when debugging

edit ppp-2.3.11/pppd/lcp.c around line 1541 and change the line which reads:

   LCPDEBUG((LOG_INFO, "lcp_reqci: rcvd CBCP");

to read:

   LCPDEBUG(("lcp_reqci: rcvd CBCP"));

- chap ms bug

see the post by Christian Boye at the URL:
http://lists2.schulte.org/pipermail/pptp-server/2000-December/004192.html

essentially there is a typo in ppp-2.3.11/pppd/chap_ms.c which requires
fixing plus a very small modification to compensate for the same error.

cheers, Wiz!!
