For a year or so the scan tool has been unidentified and referred to by one
Bugtaq poster as  "mystery tool number 11". At least, I couldn't find any
correlations that identified it anywhere on the web.

I have positively identified "mystery tool number 11" as Synscan by psychoid:

http://www.psychoid.lam3rz.de/synscan.html

At the end of any scan, it's also designed to send a SYN-FIN to
www.microsoft.de on port 31337, so if you guys at MS Germany are wondering
why you are getting thousands of B.O. scans a day, that's why :)
