Peter Wemm 358c5baa72 echoping is a damn useful tool for checking reachability other than
via icmp status, eg: tcp or udp.  It speaks http as well, so it can
"ping" a http server or a http proxy cache to make sure it's operating
and not wedged.  (Nearly all of our system lockups are not detected
by icmp pings)
