Some time ago, David Heidelberg forked the iputils packages found at
http://www.skbuff.net/iputils. The fork is maintained at
https://github.com/iputils/iputils/

Many Linux distros, including Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, and probably
others, have switched to the fork. As the package maintainer within
Debian, I've found David to be responsive as upstream, and have had an
easy time integrating all the Debian patches back into his repository.

Is there a reason OpenWRT hasn't switched? I'm happy to send patches if
they'll be considered.
