Was still testing, actually.. I hadn't seen the behaviour with a quick
test of 2.2.16... but I didn't test it all too much.

AFAIK. It's the machine's sole PCI slot.

Was gcc 2.7.2, now gcc 2.95 (for 2.4.0-test1)

This worked just fine with 2.2.15's and 2.2.16's ipchains support, so I
would call a bug on the 2.4.0's ipchains compatibility. Unless it can be
shown where ping is buggy here. I'm using ping from netbase 3.18-4
(Debian)
