For the record (in other words for the next time I ask the same
question lol) I've identified the problem.


traceroute.c, line 161:
hints.ai_flags = AI_IDN;


getaddrinfo(3):
=============
AI_IDN  If this flag is specified, then the node name given in
        node is converted to IDN  format  if  necessary. The 
        source encoding is that of the current locale. If the input
        name contains non-ASCII characters, then the IDN encoding is
        used. Those parts of the node name (delimited by dots) that
        contain non-ASCII characters are encoded using ASCII Compatible
        Encoding (ACE) before being passed to the name resolution
functions. =============

My glibc is (intentionally) not IDN-enabled, hence my problem with
traceroute. Commenting out that line leads to compiling a working
traceroute for my system.


Sorry, Duncan, but it seems your problem is not related and this info
is not much help for you. :(
