Okay, everybody relax.

The error messages I have been haunted by have been resolved.
Evidently while experimenting with that winmodem last Sunday its
buggy Linux driver module somehow invoked a "multilink" option
that created a database in /var/run/pppd.tdb. The presence of
that database evidently was the culprit, even long after that
winmodem was history. Paul's documentation on pppd contained the
clue. All one has to do is RTFM! I removed that database and now
pppd works cleanly.
