If I've been pre-empted in this, great.

I'm trying to maintain a web page detailing information on this Ping
problem. Its fairly sparse at the moment, but I'm about to try
dropping our Ultrix and DEC Unix boxes with this bloody-great ping
problem and I'll fill in the details then.

Its at http://www.sophist.demon.co.uk/ping

It's not very complete, and it's not a very fast site, but If you all
keep me posted on which systems are vulnerable to this ping problem,
I'll keep the page up to date.

** BTW. I've also put Alans patch, plus the patch that identifies who
tried to exploit the problem (both for Linux) on line as well..

Enjoy.
