Same patch, now with more REVISION bump.

-ICMPINFO:
+icmpinfo is a tool for observing ICMP messages in a manner similar
+to tcpdump(8).
- icmpinfo is a tool for looking at the icmp messages received on
- the running host.
+It is implemented as a heavily modified version of BSD ping.
- The source code comes from an heavily modified BSD ping source.
-
-USAGE:
-
-icmpinfo o Gives info about weird packets only [mainly icmp_unreachable].
-icmpinfo -v o Gives info about all icmp packets [that includes your own
- traceroutes...] except pings (icmp_echo_reply).
-icmpinfo -vv o To see pings too.
-icmpinfo -vvv o Will add an ascci/hexa dump of the packet.
-icmpinfo -n o Avoids name queries (faster, lighter).
-icmpinfo -p o Avoids port number to service name queries (faster, lighter).
-icmpinfo -s o Also decode the ip_src field which is the address of the
- interface receiving the packet. This option is not useful
- for hosts with a single network interface.
-icmpinfo -l o Run like a daemon (forks) and output to SYSLOG.
- (It now checks that you are root for that)

+icmpinfo will only report weird packets by default, but it can also
+dump all ICMP traffic. It is capable of running as a daemon and
+reporting all traffic to the syslog.
