alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp
alias ppp-compress-26 ppp_deflate

I got these numbers from /usr/include/linux/ppp-comp.h:

|[root at legion linux]# egrep -n '21|24|26' /usr/include/linux/ppp-comp.h
|160:#define CI_BSD_COMPRESS     21      /* config. option for BSD-Compress */
|176:#define CI_DEFLATE          26      /* config option for Deflate */
|177:#define CI_DEFLATE_DRAFT    24      /* value used in original draft RFC */
|[root at legion linux]# 

It looks like compression option #24 is the draft version of deflate, which
I assume is similar to compression option 26, so you might try adding:

alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate

to your /etc/conf.modules and see if that works for you.
