Yes, so this is expected -- 6.0.0 should behave like 5.19.14 with
net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_helper=0.

You need something like:

table inet foo {
        ct helper pptp {
                type "pptp" protocol tcp
                l3proto ip
        }

        chain prerouting {
                type filter hook prerouting priority filter; policy accept;
                tcp dport 1723 ct helper set "pptp"
        }
}

... so that the helper will start processing traffic on the pptp control port.
You might want to refine the rule a big, e.g.
'iifname ppp*' or similar, to restrict/limit the helper to those clients that need
it.
