I'm not sure how this is supposed to work in the INADDR_ANY case,
but I'll offer some advice.

Is the Ethernet interface that is doing PPPoE the first interface
listed in Network Connections? Try moving it to the first position.

If I ping the IP address of the ppp connection (ppp0) (10.64.64.64)
or router (10.114.114.114) that matches the PPPoE interface (en0),
that forces pppd to reconnect in my case.

Make sure the 'Connect automatically when starting
TCP/IP applications' checkbox is marked in the "PPPoE Options" dialog.
