Great! Thanks for testing. Would you (or someone else with OS X) try
with this attached patch (against 4.20A11) and let us know if it fixes
the problem?

Sorry it took me so long. I've been working on that Nmap Public
Source License, which took a long time. That was party because
licenses are very important to get right (it may be too late to fix
bugs once you find them), but mostly because license writing is so
boring that I kept procrastinating :).

Cheers,
