Andrew,
you got me wondering on this ... :)

I guest your idea was to hook up the mgetty to the /dev/pts/pts* or the
/dev/FS/FS* devices, and then getting *pppd *to listen on those.

The only concern I might on this is that the G711 might not get you the
fastest dialup speeds (56K) but from what I read online it might support
9.6K ~ 33K (depends on the G711 sample rate your sip provider uses).

but in any case, it's worth a try! :)
