No, this is the same symptom described in comment 14. This is a result of a
difference between Windows and Linux: in Windows, you need no special
privilege to send ICMP echos, while in Linux you do. We can't "fix" it at
runtime. I believe the current recommended approach is to use something like
xattrs in your filesystem to allow an executable to have CAP_ICMP, but I
haven't tried.
