The problem seems to be related to the use of GetIpForwardTable2()
and FreeMibTable() in libdnet-stripped/src/route-win32.c. These
are only available on Vista and later. The old way AFAICR was to
dynamically load these functions. But not now.

Ref. http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2012/q3/814
 for the problem report on Win-7.

In my private build, I did use GetProcAddress() on these and
use the newest API if available. Otherwise a fallback to
GetIpForwardTable() for Win-XP.

Vlatko, contact me off-list if you want a patch and is able
to compile Nmap yourself.
