Subject: iputils: ping.c - using -I for both interface and address

When I use 'ping 1.2.3.4 -I eth1 -I 2.3.4.5' the packets come out with
eth1's address anyway.
It seems to me that IP_PKTINFO is set for every packet, with
ipi_spec_dst set to 0. This overrides the inet->saddr set by bind.

Here's a fix:
--- ping.c	2007-11-27 02:57:27.000000000 +0200
+++ ping.c.patched	2008-09-18 19:59:45.000000000 +0300

+		if (options & F_STRICTSOURCE)

 		cmsg_len = sizeof(cmsg);
