When the trace path changes between rounds (as can happen for UDP and TCP where the src/dest port are not fixed) the tracer can fail to find all hops on the path in subsequent rounds.
Sequence of events:
In round 1 the target is found for hop 10, target_ttl is set to be 10
In round 2 the target is found for hop 5, target_ttl is set to be 5
In round 3 the target is not found as the trace only sends probes for ttl up to 5 (target would have been found by ttl 10)
This should not occur if stable src/dest port numbers are used, i.e. when using Parisian checksums.
