The checks for conficker and ms08_067 check for a specific status code
of 0x00000057, but do so by the name mapping to this value rather than
by value.
The name of this value was change from NT_STATUS_WERR_UNKNOWN_57 to
NT_STATUS_WERR_INVALID_PARAMETER in r24847, breaking these tests because
they were still searching for the "UNKNOWN_57" string.
This error was reported by Kit Peters.

Debian can also run on the FreeBSD kernel. I changed o/Linux/ to o/Unix/
and added the debian_kfreebsd CPE to most match lines that mentioned
Debian. I excepted a few that said explicitly "Debian GNU/Linux".
I changed the hop distance calculation in r26791 to include the end
host, so that a directly connected target would be a distance 1, not 0,
and so on. But I didn't adjust the calculation of the T test value to
compensate. I noticed this in a lot of OS submissions that were directly
connected having an estimated initial TTL of T=41, i.e., 65 rather than
64.

This caused an error message when compiled with Clang 3.1:

Importing the whole std namespace caused a problem with Clang and the
punning of bind and std::bind.

The Web's opinion of "using namespace std" also seems to be more against
than for.
