Re: nmap segfault fix

This is very funny...
You mean to tell us that nmap is currently segfaulting for an industry, based on the fact that there's a license disagreement in the forums?

I'm just realizing the extent of this convenient glitch for ATP groups. Lots of security products depend on nmap out there.

Myself, I can't even get it to successfully ping a host, even though ping works just fine from the same environment.

"nmap: backwards memcpy" when doing the simplest scans.

We need this patched asap guys. Please accept the commit. Everybody at nmap agrees that Kernel inclusion is all good, it is part of their intentions to maintain this working relationship. Their license disagreement has to do with blocking miscreants from repackaging nmap with exploits and trojans.
Let's not get into punctuation fights over legaleeze? Pretty please?

Nmap not working as advertised in the base packages is a problem for society. Lots of noobs can't manually patch software as part of their full-time jobs.

I committed this about a week ago to both 7.0-stable and to -current:
