called. Formerly the only way to create a port was to call
PortList::addPort, which also set the state. Now ports are allocated on
demand whenever anything about a port is set. If we don't set the state
and reason, they're "unknown" and "unknown-reason". Because of the
special handling of PORT_UNKNOWN in the output table, this could lead to
an assertion failure reported by Jon Kibler.

sample from a server that does--"LuCI - Lua Configuration Interface".

first, then look through system paths.) This bug is very rare since these
optional libraries are very rarely installed in most distributions.

initial request to get a value stored in the Keep-Alive header, which is
the size of the pipeline. It then iterates, doignt hat many requests at
once until the list of requests is exhausted. The prbolem was that in
the first round, it didn't count its initial Keep-Alive probe. So if the
server said it was good for 40 requests, we would send 41 before closing
the connection. Even worse was when the initial probe returned a
"Connection: close"; the pipeline would try another request before
closing the connection for the first time.

This ensures that if the "Start NPF service at boot" option is unchecked, the
NPF service will not start at boot, even if WinPcap was previously installed
that way. The patch is by Rob Nicholls.

o Nmap will try to start the NPF service on Windows if it is not
running already. This should only happen on Windows Vista and
Windows 7. Because startign NPF requires administrator privileges, a
UAC dialog will appear the first time Nmap is run (when NPF is not
running) but will not appear after that.
o The Windows installer now has an option /NPFSTARTUP=NO, which
inhibits starting NPF at the time of installation and at system
startup, when the installer is run in silent mode (/S). This option
corresponds to the NPF checkboxes that appear when running in
non-silent mode.
to <socket.h>, when doing the test for socklen_t. Apparently OpenBSD has
it in <sys/types.h> and it causes a build failure later if we detect
that the type is not present.

It happened when the preliminary distance guess for a target was
greater than 30, the size of an internal data structure. David and
Brandon tracked down the problem.
