infinite loop error of nmap versions > 4.20

Hello,

about 5 weeks ago i checked NMAP 4.22RC0 with parameters given below and
made following notes:

> i checked the new nmap version 4.22RC and got an error such that
> after about 20 seconds CPU util. raised to 100%, no nmap-traffic was
> generated and nmap loops infinitely.
> I used this nmap line: nmap -sP 10.82.2,3,5,7,11.31-254
> (some address segments within our intranet)

the newest release 4.22S0C5 also shows the same effect.
after a short time (> 20s) : 100% CPU utilization with no network traffic
generated by NMAP

kind regards
Edward Henke
