Thanks for the report. I've removed that checking code as it was
superfluous, just as you said.

My the way, I have been making a lot of change to Nmap recently to make
it build better on the Mac as part of an effort to build Zenmap
packages. In particular Nmap is now much easier to build universal. The
current nmap package doesn't build universal, but with a recent checkout
and future release it should.
