Thanks for your very detailed reply. As you correctly assumed, I did
learn about traceroute before re-inventing the wheel, so most of what
you wrote was familiar. But I didn't know about the -I parameter.
 
traceroute -I www.google.com does, as you wrote, get to the target. 

Since I think that that's more than I'm expected to emulate, I
added a more "friendly" error message to my program in the case of a
(FW caused) timeout.
