address on Solaris. The Solaris error message was
/dev/lo: No such file or directory
but apparently it can also be
lo0: No DLPI device found
Also changed the message to say that it can happen when scanning any
interface address, not just localhost. The new error message was lately
reported by Dom De Vitto.

ability to run a scan from the editor was the one thing the command
wizard could do that the profile editor couldn't, but now it can do that
too.
host, which means that it is either found down or else all
port/script/traceroute/etc. scanning is finished. In r12798 I made it be
updated as soon as DNS resolution happened, to make the status display
"X undergoing Ping Scan" accurate. However the main loop also uses this
variable to count how many addresses have been generated so it knows
when to stop scanning random addresses. If -iR was used, only the first
hostgroup out of all the random addresses would be fully scanned and
then the scan would end. This change fixes that and also makes the
output more like it was pre-r12798; for example, if you had done name
resolution on 1024 hosts with --max-hostgroup 8, and had found the 8th
up host at the 280th one pinged, the output was
Stats: 0:00:29 elapsed; 1016 hosts completed (8 up), 8 undergoing Connect Scan
and is now
Stats: 0:00:29 elapsed; 272 hosts completed (8 up), 8 undergoing Connect Scan
in Visual C++ in Debug mode. The isprint, isalpha, etc. functions from ctype.h
have an assertion that the value of the character passed in is <= 255. If you
pass a character whose value is >= 128, it is cast to an unsigned int, making
it a large positive number and failing the assertion. This is the same thing
that was reported in http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2007/q2/0257.html, in regard
to non-ASCII characters in nmap-mac-prefixes.

to iterate over every target doing nothing in the common case when those
scan types aren't used.

error of its own:
./nselib/stdnse.lua:61: bad argument #3 to 'format' (string expected, got nil)
It seems that a deadlock happens immediately after one of these errors
occurs. This change doesn't fix the deadlock but allows the underlying
error message to be printed.
