I installed NetPacket and used it to decode in icmp_recv like this: 
sub icmp_recv {
    my $icmp = shift;

    #    Listen for ICMP response
    my $icmpbuffer;
    if( my $icmpr = $icmp->recv( $icmpbuffer, 1024, 0 ) ) {
        my $obj = NetPacket::ICMP->decode( $icmpbuffer );
        print Dumper( $obj );
    }
    return $icmpbuffer;
}

which returns this: 
$VAR1 = bless( {
                 '_parent' => undef,
                 'data' => 'r@
¿ßEr@
Ìäà',
                 'cksum' => 9216,
                 'type' => 69,
                 '_frame' => 'E$r@
¿ßEr@
Ìäà',
                 'code' => 0
               }, 'NetPacket::ICMP' );
