System: FreeBSD master.askd.ru 8.2-STABLE FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE #1: Fri Jul 15 18:23:18 NOVST 2011 root@master-new.askd.gmbh:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/Master i386
Interface:
em0: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500        options=219b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4,WOL_MAGIC>

        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
        status: active
>Description:
When I try to do ordinary ping for local address in interface em0, ping shows 100% lost
master:[root] 102>ping 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1): 56 data bytes
^C
--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100.0% packet loss

When I do the same, but with hardly specified IP address, all OK:
master:[root] 109>ping -S 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) from 192.168.1.1: 56 data bytes

64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.030 ms
^C
--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 2 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.019/0.025/0.030/0.005 ms

When I try to looking, what's wrong, I see, that first time source address is 0.0.0.0! 

master:[root] 113>tcpdump -i lo0 -n icmp and host 192.168.1.1
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode

Same way at FreeBSD 7.3-RELEASE all OK: (192.168.1.94 is their address)
to-594:[root] 139>ping 192.168.1.94
PING 192.168.1.94 (192.168.1.94): 56 data bytes

>How-To-Repeat:

Try to ping it.
You failed.
