Broken version of shortport.lua in 6.46 tarball

[Paulino Calderon Pale <calderon () websec mx>]

Hey,

I got a report about a possibly broken shortport.lua in the tarball http://nmap.org/dist/nmap-6.46.tar.bz2  but it 
seems to be fixed in the repository already. If anyone else is having similar problems, just update your working copy.

Cheers.
