New description:

 Reinstalled mtr under High Sierra, and suddenly mtr cannot be run without
 been root: it cannot open a raw socket.
 Reason: it's no longer installed with SUID flag.

 But, exactly like traceroute, mtr needs to be SUID.
 {{{
 $ ls -l $(which traceroute)
 -r-sr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  38128 21 sep 06:35 /usr/sbin/traceroute
 }}}
 but:
 {{{
 $ ls -l $(which mtr)
 -rwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin  85396 30 sep 20:00 /opt/local/sbin/mtr
 }}}
 Workaround: {{{sudo chmod u+s /opt/local/sbin/mtr}}}

 To fix, mtr should be installed with SUID flag (as it was before, and like
 traceroute is).
