The leak reported by Igor is in opentemp().
The only place opentemp() is called from is diffreg().
When diffreg() is called from main(), the only calls that
follow are print_status() and exit(), so we do not really
leak anything: opentemp() leaks ifd, returns NULL,
diffreg() returns, main()

Hi Brad,
Since ping takes either an int or a string as a host name arg,
it would be neat if a flag could be passed that forces ping to treat

I'd say that flag already exists: just give the FQDN.
So i don't think we need yet another flag.
