10 For the adventurous: I'm using ping from mininet (http://www.fefe.de/mininet/).

12 In order to build that, you need
13 dev-libs/dietlibc-0.22-r2 [ Masked ] (please add ppc keyword)
14 and
15 dev-libs/libowfat-0.15 (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23800)

17 Both host and ping are working on my iBook.
