construct, add_host and send work. tcpdump says that this program 
actually pings:

use Net::Oping;
my $obj;
my $host = 'some.pingable.host.name';
$obj = Net::Oping::construct();
Net::Oping::host_add($obj, $host);
Net::Oping::send($obj);

Now I'm entangled with ping_iterator_get_info, which is not so 
entirely trivial. As time permits, I'm starting to read "man 
perlguts" and "man perlxs" in order to have it return an hash or 
array of all the possible info that it can retrieve.

I will keep you informed when (and if) I actually make some progress.
