While looking at the ping code, I noticed that "ntransmitted" is not
initialized before using. (but it is a BSS initialized external). There
are other programs that do a similiar thing.

Not wanting to start a religious war, but should send-prs be submitted
for this type of stuff? i.e.

	...
	/* counters */
	long ntransmitted = 0;
	...
	main(argc, argv)
	...

Thanks,
