Well, I hardly ever use PPTP with my VPN provider as I either use proxy DNS or
OpenVPN.   So, today I tried and found some interesting things....

F26 - Fails   (Same log entries that you've shown)
F24 - Works
Android 7 - Fails
Android 6.0.1 - Works

Since they should be knowledgeable in this area I opened a ticket with my VPN
provider and asked them about the case involving Android.  If they comeback with
something which may be applicable I'll let you know.
