This program was adapted by Avery Pennarun from the traceroute program by
Van Jacobson, which had been subsequently ported to Linux by Matt Day
<mday@artisoft.com>. traceroute was released under the BSD license, and
thus so is this program.
The README.linux in traceroute said the following:
This is a port of 4.4BSD traceroute for Linux.
This version of traceroute also includes a fix for a bug that could
cause traceroute to hang indefinitely in certain cases. See the
wait_for_reply() function in traceroute.c for details.
The supplied binary was compiled on Linux 1.1.49 with gcc 2.5.8.
Note that the kernel modification mentioned in the README is not
needed on Linux.
