This reverts commit e25568f. as it breaks ping to local IPv6 interfaces: This is a regression from e25568f ("correctly initialize first hop") $ ip -6 addr |grep 'inet6' inet6 fe80::fc54:ff:fe2d:cc21/64 scope link $ ./ping -6 fe80::fc54:ff:fe2d:cc21 connect: Invalid argument $ ip -6 maddr |grep 'inet6' inet6 ff02::1 $ ./ping -6 ff02::1 connect: Invalid argument Fixes iputils#99 (regression in iputils#57).

…ication link-local address required to specify interface either with -I option option) or '%'-notation in destination. If not it failed with "connect: Invalid argument". Now it's possible to ping without it. NOTE: it used to be possible in the past: added in f68eec0 ("ping: perform dual-stack ping by default") and removed again in e25568f ("correctly initialize first hop"). + allow this for link-local scope multicast address (TODO: is it convinient?) Fixes iputils#99.
