Description of problem:
I compiled a 2.4.9 kernel with ipv6 support and when I try to do a
traceroute6 to it as a regular user I get an error message that the socket
operation is not permitted.  If I become root and try the same thing, it
works.  /usr/sbin/traceroute is setuid root, to enable it to perform raw
socket operations.  It seems that /usr/sbin/traceroute6 needs to be setuid
root as well.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
traceroute-1.4a5-23

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:

[selsky@ice selsky]$ /usr/sbin/traceroute6 ftp.netbsd.org

Actual Results:  traceroute6: icmp socket: Operation not permitted

Expected Results:

[root@ice /root]# /usr/sbin/traceroute6 ftp.netbsd.org
