Normal connect scripts seem to work fine for me:

22/tcp  open   ssh     syn-ack
|_banner: SSH-1.99-OpenSSH_3.6.1p2
80/tcp  open   http    syn-ack
|_http-date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 20:10:00 GMT; +2m05s from local time.


But raw socket scripts cause this with the new garbage collection:

Completed NSE at 15:13, 0.02s elapsed
NSE: Script Engine Scan Aborted.
An error was thrown by the engine: raw socket already closed
stack traceback:
        [C]: ?
        [C]: ?
        [C]: in function 'collectgarbage'
        ./nse_main.lua:1004: in function <./nse_main.lua:918>
        [C]: ?

Running ipidseq, qscan and path-mtu in your branch resulted in this, but the
scripts otherwise seem to run fine because they produced (at first glance)
good-looking output.

Cheers,
