[j-nsp] Junos BNG PPPoE inside a VPLS

[Graham Brown]

I've run into a very strange bug on the MX where PPP through a VPLS results
in the packets being mangled - affected circuits have been migrated to
L2VPNs. Although a fix is provided in 12.3R4 which we are currently testing
- I'll dig out the PR when I get into the office.
