 I'm a bit surprised no one has called this out before, but when checking
 out my network performance with ping, I noticed that the std-deviation
 values it was printing were way out of whack -- larger than the actual
 round-trip times!

 Took me a while to blame the Newton's square root calculation, but one of
 the comparisons there had the wrong sense!

 A fix is attached.
