nmap -s[FNX] hangs

Hi list,


as soon as nmap 4.11 scans more than 20 closed ports in -sF, -sN or -sX 
mode, it hangs. This problem does not occur with nmap 3.81.

Take a look at what nmap/tcpdump (the latter of which runs in the 
background) gives:

# uname -r
2.6.18.5
# nmap -sF 127.0.0.1 -P0 -r -n -p 20-22 -T4
(20 closed, 21 open, 22 open)

win 2048
(nothing happens nmap waits and waits... - same behavior with nmap 4.00)

OTOH:

# uname -r
2.6.13
# nmap -sF lo -p 22 -P0 -n
(22 open)

Interesting ports on 127.0.0.1:
PORT   STATE         SERVICE
22/tcp open|filtered ssh

Nmap finished: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 2.095 seconds

What's up here with nmap4?
