I removed the ipv6 module and rebooted. In the logging output I could see that the syslog daemon triggers the load of ipv6. Is it possible to "deconfigure" this behaviour? Besides that I could confirm that the culprit is indeed the ipv6 module. Without it the dsl speed is fine.
Anyway, the real solutions must be to solve the issue with ipv6. Now I wonder if this is a problem that only shows up on ppc (or maybe only on iBooks?).
