The openl2tp plugin has a dirty hack to handle multilink channels coming up, but it's being compiled out. Multilink support is enabled by having -DHAVE_MULTILINK in $CFLAGS... but although we build the dæmon that way, we *aren't* building the plugins with that flag. So doing_multilink and multilink_master, the variables that are checked by the openl2tp plugin, are both #defined to zero when we build it. And thus openl2tp will never receive notification that the channel came up.
