Oops.  Never tried it with both rules enabled at the same time.  And it
looks like it's working the way I want.  Thanks!

And to answer Greg's question--This is the first time I've ever needed
to do something with iptables more complicated than allow traffic into a
server.  In this case, I do want to NAT the traffic coming over the PPTP
connections so that I don't have to disturb the poorly documented
existing network and routing while we work out an upgrade plan.
