Its just saying you have more than one interface, ie, eth0 and eth0:1. It is 
telling you that the packets it sends out will use the source address of eth0 
(ie, the address of the first interface). You can use -i to specify an 
interface, eg:
traceroute -i eth1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Which I always need to use as eth1 is the card with my default route....
