I found an assertion failure that happens when no open ports are found.

# nmap --script-trace -sC -p15-21 target

Starting Nmap 4.65 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2008-06-03 11:17 MDT

Interesting ports:
PORT   STATE  SERVICE
15/tcp closed netstat
16/tcp closed unknown
17/tcp closed qotd
18/tcp closed msp
19/tcp closed chargen
20/tcp closed ftp-data
21/tcp open   ftp

Taking away the open port,

# nmap --script-trace -sC -p15-20 target

The same thing happens if I use other blocks of closed ports, like
-p30-40.
