This element is intended to report information about command-line target
specifications. Now it's used with status="skipped" to indicate that a
specification was ignored.

This is the way it worked for IPv6 (with the exception of a slash in an
IPv6 address, which has also been made into a warning)--warn about the
bogus specification and carry on with the other targets.
The main use for this is preventing the whole scan from being stopped
when a bad specification appears in a hostgroup after the first.
First try SIOCGLIFFLAGS with an IPv4 socket, then again with an IPv6 socket if that fails. Use that same socket for the other ioctl queries.
Avoid adding an IPv6 alias address that is the same as an IPv6 primary address. This is the same as an existing check in the IPv4 case.
Fix a loop exit boundary condition check.
Up to data structure differences. I'm not sure why they differed to
begin with, though I remember writing the comment that explains that
they differed. This is related to a problem reported by Daniel Miller:
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2012/q1/675.
Because in_addr is stored in network byte order, this function could
extract the octets in MSB-to-LSB order or in LSB-to-MSB order. This
didn't matter in the case of resolved names, because the same order was
used when generating the octet array and later when matching against it.
But the function parse_ipv4_ranges, which handles literal IPv4
addresses, always uses octet[0] as the MSB, so comparisons failed in
later matching.
As it was, the code worked on little-endian architectures but didn't on
big-endian.
The patch that moves "config.h" to the top of scanner.l (and hence
scanner.c) has to happen before the files are pregenerated, otherwise
there is an error on AIX:
In file included from scanner.c:2792:
/usr/include/unistd.h:171: error: conflicting types for 'lseek64'
/usr/include/unistd.h:169: error: previous declaration of 'lseek64' was here
