This isn't necessarily the best statistic, but it is by far the easiest to
calculate. Update the man page to be more explicit about precisely which
statistics are printed out. Revert some of jmg's bogus man page changes from
rev 1.11.
used spaces to align the second line under the program name.
2) Cache uid after call to setuid(getuid()) so we don't waste a system call
for each packet with a call to getuid for the -v case.
3) Update manual to reflect new restriction on -l from last delta.

2) Must be root to run preload (OpenBSD ping.c 1.8)
3) Don't print all replies unless verbose and root (from idea in
OpenBSD ping.c 1.10 and 1.11) to avoid leaking information available
only to root.
4) Remove unused h: from option string to getopt.
5) Make the compiler happy with exit(0) (Lite-2?)

Good candidate for 2.2 and 2.1 (as are many of the 1.17 changes).
Do a better job of argument parsing.
Don't permit ping -f to a multicast address (very antisocial).
Don't permit -L, -I, -T options with unicast addresses.
Ensure that we ask for only AF_INET addresses (should close PR#2584).
Return <sysexits.h> error codes for failures. Document this.
Fix man page to identify the author and put sections in correct order.

Add '-a' audible flag, so terminal will beep upon receipt of a reply
packet. Useful for debugging ethernet runs, among other things.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Turn this behavior off using '-Q'. This makes '-v' useless other than as
an ICMP-sniffer, which tcpdump is better at anyway.
Print out another couple of ICMP messages, and fix the printing of the
original packet (mostly byte order problems).
