>Description:
Traceroute is currently using v1.3.2 (written in 1996)
Current version on ee.lbl.gov is 1.4a12 (released Dec 2000 (currently in use on most current Linux distros)
There have been many additions made to traceroute since then, including additional
support for FreeBSD. Suggest that it be updated to the more recent version in the 
next revision, unless there is a pressing reason not to. 
>How-To-Repeat:
Run traceroute
>Fix:
incorporate traceroute update from ee.lbl.gov into FreeBSD.

 1.4 alpha 12 by definition isn't release-quality.  If it was release
 quality, they would call it 1.4.

 Unfortunately, much LBL software is in eternal alpha.
 Fortunately, LBL's alpha quality code is often better
 than others' release quality code...

 Not a reason not to try it in -CURRENT.
 Besides, naming conventions are always arbitrary.

 BTW, I never merged this into 4.x because 1.4a12 had some regressions 
 from the traceroute in 4.x (source address selection with -g, checksum 
 with -g, allows using a source address that doesn't belong to this 
 system, possibly others) and I never finished testing / coding fixes.
