the output from the ping provided with redhat 7.3:
[root at arwen libexec]# ping -c 1 gugu.home
PING gugu.home (10.10.2.11) from 10.10.1.6 : 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from gugu.home (10.10.2.11): icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=0.595 ms

--- gugu.home ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% loss, time 0ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.595/0.595/0.595/0.000 ms

and here comes a redhat 7.2:

[root at cutter root]# ping -c 1 gugu.home
PING gugu.home (10.10.2.11) from 10.10.2.4 : 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from gugu.home (10.10.2.11): icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=815 usec

--- gugu.home ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/mdev = 0.815/0.815/0.815/0.000 ms

differences in the last two lines! when it hangs take a look at your
processlist:

[root at arwen libexec]# ps ax | grep ping
 4394 pts/0    S      0:00 ping 127.0.0.1 -n 1



i encountered this problem when trying to compile netsaint-plugins. i
had to edit the configure scripts and the check_ping.c 

nagios + nagios plugins compile just fine on rh7.3 btw.
