Providing a touch more closure to this thread; since blocking certain
packets from being sent through the link, the symptom no longer occurs,
so I think the peer is indeed broken.

The ip-up script now does this;

# eth1 satellite service is 192.168.x.x
iptables --insert OUTPUT 1 --source 192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0 \
    --destination 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 --jump DROP \
    --out-interface ${PPP_IFACE}

# eth0 internal network is 10.0.x.x
iptables --insert OUTPUT 1 --source 10.0.0.0/255.255.0.0 \
    --destination 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 --jump DROP \
    --out-interface ${PPP_IFACE}

# block any PPTP VPN traffic
iptables --insert OUTPUT 1 --protocol GRE --jump DROP \
    --out-interface ${PPP_IFACE}
