OK, this is appears to be a regression in network-manager from Jaunty. I downgraded network-manager to the version from jaunty and now connecting to the internet via my N95 works, even using bluetooth. This is my current setup:

$ dpkg -l | grep network-manager
ii network-manager 0.7.1~rc4.1.cf199a964-0ubuntu2 network management framework daemon
ii network-manager-gnome 0.8~a~git.20090818t151413.a8b7eed-0ubuntu2 network management framework (GNOME frontend)
ii network-manager-pptp 0.7.1-0ubuntu2 network management framework (PPTP plugin)

$ dpkg -l | grep blueman
ii blueman 1.20+r446~karmic A Graphical bluetooth manager

$ cat /etc/apt/preferences
Package: network-manager
Pin: release a=jaunty
