Last I checked, this was the "real world" (or at least it appears to be) and
I'm using PoPToP quite happily without worrying about MS's non-compliance to
their own RFC.  There really isn't any reason to want to make multiple VPN
connections from the behind the same Masq server to the same destination.
Doing so is a waste of bandwidth and there are many better ways to go about
providing the same functionality.
