Matthew,

now the ping(8) manpage includes two paragraphs with a description of
a -M option.  Was this intentional, or can we safely remove the first
one?

:    -M      Use ICMP_MASKREQ instead of ICMP_ECHO.  Print the netmask
:            of the remote machine.  Set the net.inet.icmp.maskrepl
:            MIB variable to enable ICMP_MASKREPLY.
:
:    -m ttl  Set the IP Time To Live for outgoing packets.  If not
:            specified, the kernel uses the value of the
:            net.inet.ip.ttl MIB variable.
:
:    -M mask | time
:            Use ICMP_MASKREQ or ICMP_TSTAMP instead of ICMP_ECHO.
:            For mask print the netmask of the remote machine.  Set
:            the net.inet.icmp.maskrepl MIB variable to enable
:            ICMP_MASKREPLY.  For time print the origination,
:            reception and transmition timestamps.
