1009 is so far out of date that it is not even funny any more. To
specify 1009 is marginally better than requiring NCP.

The new draft is not being published as a standard. It too is out of
date (though not as much as 1009). Specifying the new document would
be akin to specifying the rfc1171/2 version of ppp.
