+pppoatm: Allow wildcard ATM devices
+
+When operating pppd's pppoatm plugin with an USB ADSL modem, e.g. an
+Alcatel Speedtouch, the ATM device number might change when the modem is
+reconnected to the USB port or when the host controller resets the USB
+device.
+
+This patch allows to specify the ATM device as wildcard which gives
+enough flexibility to cope with changing device names.
+
+The patch originated from the Debain project.
