Yeah, I (sorta) remember those issues too, but don't think that is it
either. ping in the centos images doesn't have any file caps... In
that case the problem was it had CAP_EFFECTIVE set and shouldn't have.
My money would be on the environment where the iputils binary was
installed which differs between Centos and RHEL... (but a much much
smaller amount of money)
