What version of netkit-ping is (supposedly) installed? I have 0.10-3 here and it includes /bin/ping. Perhaps "apt-get install --reinstall netkit-ping" is in order.
I've had my share of "interesting woody events" in the past week or so, but ping hasn't been a problem here. I don't know if it would make a difference, but you probably shouldn't mix woody and potato in sources.list. There are symlinks in woody for those packages which haven't changed.
