Hi,
it came to my view (https://forum.ipfire.org/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=15377&sid=a93f68dc580a...) that there is an update for 'arping'. New version is 2.15 (IPFire: 2.05). Having the time, I tried.
First results:
- After some lfs-changes building seems ok, Diffs are as follows:

Resulting binary is a bit small. Smaller than expected. Ok, nevertheless - ("...this will NOT work...!") - copied it to '/usr/sbin' (after making a backup... ;-) ).
Rebooting the machine showed no visible problems. At first. But after starting SSH, I couldn't no longer login with PuTTY. Exactly NOTHING happens.
SSH-Log shows:
... 11:18:02 sshd[2852]: Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 222. 11:18:02 sshd[2852]: Server listening on :: port 222. 11:18:02 sshd[2859]: error: Bind to port 222 on 0.0.0.0 failed: Address already in use. 11:18:02 sshd[2859]: error: Bind to port 222 on :: failed: Address already in use. 11:18:02 sshd[2859]: fatal: Cannot bind any address. ...
Copied the old 'arping 2.05' back to '/usr/sbin', rebooted, PuTTY works.
Ok, so there is something missing (in lfs!?), probably configure-options, which is beyond my small programming skills. If anyone is interested in the new 'arping'-version and capable of this: any hints are welcome. ;-)
Best, Matthias
