Nuke bsd err usage in pppd and PPPD_CAT in mk file

The pppd package uses bsd err (which is an option in uclibc) in just two lines of code in the pppoe plugin.
The rest of the package uses syslog, so avoid bsd err since the plugin silently fails to build and get installed if uclibc is built without bsd err support.
Also why does pppd.mk use PPPD_CAT instead of ZCAT? The patch nukes that duplication too (maybe there's a reason but it seems unlikely).

Thanks, fixed in r25386. the FOO_CAT is commonly used by the old style packages, so I left it in. It should probably be converted to Makefile.autotools.in format.
