While implementing another script today I saw one drawback of having this
check in the prerule.
I would personally prefer the script to return the error as a script result
rather than having to run nmap in verbose/debug mode to find out that it's
"silently" failing due to permission issues. What do you think?

Cheers,
Patrik
