I see I've made a typo regarding icmp_seq in the output of the second
run of ping (icmp_seq 1, then 2, and then 1 again, but the last one
should be 3). I typed this manually, so there may be other typos as
well. But I can't see any typos regarding the main point, I got the ping
replies from my own IP address, with times on the order of 0.400ms.

Title:
  ping got confused about IP-adress after host unreachable

Status in iputils package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I tried pinging an IP address on an internal network. My IP is
  10.0.0.95, and I'm trying to ping 10.0.0.96. Here's what it looked
  like:

  $ ping 10.0.0.96
  PING 10.0.0.96 (10.0.0.96) 56(84) bytes of data.

  $ ping 10.0.0.96
  PING 10.0.0.96 (10.0.0.96) 56(84) bytes of data.
  64 bytes from 10.0.0.96: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.324ms

  64 bytes from 10.0.0.96: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.357ms
  etc...

  
  So on the initial run, ping claims it got a ping reply from 10.0.0.95, which 
isn't the address I'm pinging. It's my host, and it's normal to get the initial 
ICMP "Destination Host Unreachable" messages from the local IP when ARP fails. 
I almost immediately reran ping, and now the host was up from the start, and 
see responses coming from the actual host that I'm pinging.

  Looking at the times, the ping replies appear to actually come from
  10.0.0.96, or at least some other remote host, based on the time
  values. If I ping 10.0.0.95 (my own IP), I'm seeing time values of
  0.040ms or thereabouts, so an order of magnitude faster.
