Sorry, I sent my email re: keeping check_ping while on a train, so I  
didn't realise this issue was exploding until I reconnected and my  
email already flew out.

I still say to keep both check_ping and check_icmp because the fact  
you still have ideas on how to secure it means that there's still  
work to be done on check_icmp.

I'm happy to promote the use of check_icmp more (ideas?), but the  
dropping of check_ping should be in a more significant release at a  
later date.
