I think we are getting our wires crossed a bit - the output that shows 
ping generating packets every 0.5 sec is the behaviour that I want.

It was not done by me though, the person who mailed it to me did so 
because I asked in a thread on the LARTC list whether ping -i 0.5 worked 
for anyone - it works for him and he has since mailed me his binary 
which works for me. I have just asked which distro it's from.

ping -i 10 worked for me with latest inetutils release, but not when I 
tested the cvs first time, adding the one line fix that Alfred sent 
fixed that.

I just undid that fix and cvs ping -i 10 throws an invalid length 
without it.
