First, thank you, I trimed most but everything was really helpful, I 
enjoy getting such well-written investigation pattern :)

Well, ip_forward() should call netif->output(), which in our case is 
ppp_netif_output_ip4(), could you first check that ?

You can also enable PPP_DEBUG in your lwipopts.h, this will display 
discarded frames in ppp_netif_output_ip4() if any.
