o Decide what to do about Nmap static binaries failing to work on new
Fedora releases (and others?). See these threads:
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2011/q1/46 and
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q1/308
o Fix our mac builds so that they contain SSL support again (5.35DC1
did, but TEST1 and TEST2 didn't for some reason.
o Add our broadcast discovery scripts to a "broadcast" category (they
should generally just be in "broadcast" and (assuming they are safe)
"safe", and not normal "discovery". Update scripting.xml to note
this new category too.
o Update changelog to note recent changes
o Do final dev/test release
o [Ncat] Make --exec work in conjunction with --proxy. The --proxy
code path skips the --exec code. See
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2010/q4/604 and the test "--exec
through proxy" in ncat-test.pl.

o The -V option to Nmap, in addition to reporting the version number,
should give details on how Nmap was compiled and the environment it
is running on. This includes things like whether SSL is enabled,
the platform string, versions of libraries it is linked to, and
other stuff which is often useful in debugging problems.
o If Nping is compiled w/o SSL support, and the user specifies an
encryption key, it should fail and insist they use --no-crypto
rather than ignoring the key and omitting crypto. Otherwise the
user might think they're getting encryption when they're not. David
found this problem in the server, and we also should check how the
client behaves.

o We ended up dynamically linking system libs in the RPM rather than
statically linking them. We still statically link things like lua,
pcre, ssl, etc.
