Synopsis: ping hangs on certain unresolvable hosts

State-Changed-From-To: open->patched
State-Changed-By: iedowse
State-Changed-When: Sun Feb 8 14:04:13 PST 2004
State-Changed-Why: 

A partial workaround has been committed in revision 1.102 of ping.c.
This just allows you to exit ping by hitting ^C a second time in
the case where it is waiting for gethostbyaddr() to complete.
