It certainly looks like the ping mechanism doesn't work in your environment. 
As for the changes I introduced, none affect netselect's ICMP probes. So we
can still try to find the issue debugging your current installation. 

Could you please try running the following in your system?

(I'm assuming your system's network card is 'eth0' and that you have tcpdump
installed )

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ first ensure you don't have any other background process using 'jobs' ]
# tcpdump -w /tmp/netselect-icmp.pcap -ni eth0 net 74.125.115.0 or icmp &
# netselect -I -vv -s 1 www.google.com
# kill %1
[ or use 'fg' to restore the tcpdump capture and interrupt it with Ctrl+C ]
# tcpdump -w /tmp/netselect-trace.pcap -ni eth0 net 74.125.115.0 or icmp &
# netselect -vv -s 1 www.google.com
# kill %1
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

And send me the /tmp/netselect-icmp.pcap and /tmp/netselect-trace.pcap files
through private e-mail (do not send them to the bug report).

Please try to prevent doing any network related activity while doing the
packet captures (i.e. no browsing, e-mail or other stuff).

Based on the packet captures I might try to determine what's wrong in your
setup.
