If the coreutils variant of ping is used instead of the busybox one, the ping_do() command is broken. This comes by the fact that for coreutils ping, the ping IP needs to be the very last elements.
To handle this, reorder the ping args and make $dip last element.
The use of coreutils ping might be useful for case where busybox is not compiled with float interval support and ping command doesn't support 0.1 interval. (in such case a dedicated ping utility is installed instead)

Do you mean the other way around? that the busybox ping is the broken one? And by coreutils ping, you actually mean iputils ping, right?
