I don't think that both being built should be a problem.  

The two PPTP projects regularly find users who have compiled the PPP
components into the kernel, yet they do not function for them unless
they are compiled as modules.  We haven't got to the bottom of this.  We
even have evidence of a few people finding it works fine built
statically.

So I would suggest building the PPP kernel components as modules, just
to see if it makes any difference.  ;-)
