Several people have produced some patches for fping that adds an
option to select the IP source_address for queries and some have
said they submitted them to the sourceforge fping maintainer.
Since I did not see any official fping distributions that include
any of those patches, I recently Cc-ed the sourceforge fping
maintainer's address in a question to the smokeping mailing-list
asking about that patch but so far I have heard back only from
that list with a pointer to a debian patch. Per request from
Jason Harris, I include here a copy of the patch that is usable
in ports/net/fping/files that adds that option.

It seems that installation action of uppc-kmod port (do-install target)
uses incorrect tool to put uppc.ko in its destination. It seems that the
tool (${INSTALL_PROGRAM}) corrupts the .ko, so that it is not a valid
kernel module anymore. If I put uppc.ko into /boot/kernel and do kldxref
then kldxref complains about missing symbol table in uppc.ko and dumps
core. If the module is loaded then it crashes my system.
On the other hand, if I simply copy uppc.ko from work directory then it
works ok.
Essentially this is the same issue as described in the following PR only
with another port:

Kostik Belousov confirms the issue with stripping kernel modules on amd64:
You cannot strip kernel modules on amd64, because modules are elf object
files, as opposed to shared objects on all other archs. Strip strips the
object file symbol table, that is used by the static linker and in-kernel
linker on amd64. On the other hand, shared object contains also a dynamic
symbol table, that is not stripped and used by in-kernel linker on !amd64.

calls to machines that are better suited to do work, to do work in parallel,
to load balance lots of function calls, or to call functions between
languages.
This is the server daemon component. The bridge between workers (clients who
can do work) and callers (clients who want work done). You should run several
of these, at least two, for both load balancing and high availability.

Ecamegapedal also supports reading from and writing to audio
files. All audio object and effect plugin types provided
by the Ecasound libraries are supported. This includes ALSA,
JACK, OSS, aRts, over 20 file formats, over 30 effect types,
LADSPA plugins and multi-operator effect presets. Ecamegapedal's
implementation is based on Ecasound and Qt libraries.

Based on: NetBSD pkgsrc port
bsd.port.mk. In addition, a revision shorthand has been added, e.g.,
USE_PERL5= 5.8.0+. This syntax is implemented for the following knobs:
USE_PERL5, USE_PERL5_RUN, USE_PERL5_BUILD, PERL_CONFIGURE and PERL_MODBUILD.
Credit also goes to sem who wrote an earlier version of this patch in
ports/55515, marcus and kris for doing earlier testing, and kuriyama and
others for additional work along the way.
Thanks to gabor@FreeBSD.org for doing all this work.

From README:
TSP is a control protocol used to establish and maintain
static tunnels. The Gateway6 Client is used on the host
computer to connect to a tunnel broker using the TSP protocol
and to get the information for its tunnel. When it receives
the information for the tunnel, the Gateway6 client creates
the static tunnel on its operating system.
The Gateway6 Client code is mostly identical for all client
platforms. However, creating the static tunnel is operating
system dependent and is done by a script called by the
Gateway6 Client. These scripts are located under the template
directory in the Gateway6 Client installation directory.
The script executed by the Gateway6 Client to configure the
tunnel interface is customized for each type of supported
operating system and takes care of all specifics for the
target operating system. On Unix systems, it is a shell
script. This separation of the binary and script enables
fast and easy additions of new operating systems, as has
been shown by the community contributions for many operating
systems.
