Done. I also realised my wireshark display filter was dst_host rather 
than simply host - it looks as though replies _do_ come back but for 
some reason are ignored? My apologies.

The 2.6.27 dump contains a connection to a local file mirror 
(203.21.20.200) and an attempted connection to store.apple.com 
(17.149.156.10).

I believe the differing MAC addresses on the PPP remote endpoint are due 
to my ISP having multiple layer 2 termination routers for 
load-balancing/redundancy and not a symptom of the issue.

Cheers,
