Since we know what the issue is (pptp can choose any IP of the group, and NM isn't aware of which was choosen so the gateway address can't necessarily be correct), I'm marking this Triaged / Medium.

BTW, this bug will need to be opened upstream as well.

Patches welcome, of course. If you want to look into it, it should be something to modify in src/nm-pptp-service.c around line 997, and requires finding a way to ask pptp or have it tell us which gateway address gets used.
