I disagree with the fact that you simply close this pr as being a duplicate
case of PR 16240.

PR 16240 tries to address the generic problem, which is indeed present in 
many network implementations and may or maynot be difficult to fix.

Here, a very simple patch is presented for a special instance of 16240 
(an instance that occurs a lot, e.g. using udp based tracerouted). I see no
reason why this patch cannot be applied to FreeBSD.

If there *are* issues that I overlooked I would like to hear about them, 
and have them properly discussed.

Please reconsider.

Frank
