BUGFIXES:
* Fix crash on MacOSX
* ICMP echo test (ping):
- bug #31128: do not log error if different response type is received
- bug #31129: do not require root to use ping test. Privilege to create
raw socket is still required, but on some platforms such as Solaris it
can be granted to non-root users too. If the user has no permission to
perform ping, monit will skip the icmp test and log message (in debug
mode only).
* rsync protocol test:
- wait for full server response and verify exit was received
- bug #31249: send full version to rsync server. Thanks to John Hall
