Use the 'debug' option and make sure that either /etc/syslog.conf has
daemon.debug directed to a file, or that you use the 'updetach' option
to send the debug information to your tty.
strace doesn't really record the needed information to debug the
problem.

It seems like the peer said "TZif". Not sure why, as you've not
included debug information.

You shouldn't need to stare at the code to configure a PPP link. Just
what exactly are you trying to do?
Are you trying to modify pppd's source code or are you trying to set
up a PPP link?
