Bash is running the program traceroute for you.  Having successfully
run that program bash is operating correctly.  This is not a bug in
bash and the bash bug list can't help you further.

The traceroute program that you invoked using bash is reporting the
routing that your ISP has arranged between one place and another.
That routing is not under the control of traceroute (and certainly has
nothing to do with bash) and is totally under the control of the
networking provided either by your ISP or by network providers
contracted by your ISP.

If you have questions concerning your network routing then you need to
talk with your ISP.
