This a tough job. You gotta know how every protocol works in detail and figure
out a smart way to make it respond. They are often "UDP-like" but doesn't answer
with ICMP port unreachable.
What could be of interest?
ESP (50)
AH (51)
You might have a chance to trace more things then only listening/not listening
from ESP and AH such as encryption method, mode (agressiv/non-aggressiv), key
handling......just a thought.

RFC 1700 covers most known ports but is far from complete. I'm not sure
but I think the last time it was updated was october 1994.
For example, there are some interesting ports between 802 and 995 which
rfc 1700 is not aware of which really is potenital hack stuff. See below:

What you all want to do is to go to IANA and get the list of assigned ports.

What would be interesting for nmap to not only scan TCP/UDP ports, but also
scan for the reaction for protocols other than 7, 16 and see how the server
reacts.
