Hi,

I noted that calling traceroute with -nA result to pledge to abort.

$ traceroute -nA openbsd.org
traceroute to openbsd.org (129.128.5.194), 64 hops max, 40 byte packets
Abort trap (core dumped) 

It is due because with -n we don't request for "dns" promise, whereas
-A (Look up the AS number for each hop address) uses DNS service for
resolv the AS number.

Ok or comments ?
