Hey all,

This patch fixes a bug found by David.  Tracing to the external
interface of a multi-homed node could cause traceroute to
miss-calculate the hop distance.

As a result of fixing this bug the hop distance calculation code has
been made more accurate (hopefully saving some bandwidth) and the
MAX_TTL code has been made a more durable.

Patch is against SVN

thanks
- eddie
