The missing first character in the script error is probably the \ error
that Jah fixed in r13133

Any chance you can pull down the source and compile it?  The change was
just:

- -    "  local basename = assert(match(script, '[/\\]?([^/\\]-%.nse)$'))\n"
+    "  local basename = assert(match(script, '[/\\\\]?([^/\\\\]-%.nse)$'))\n"

But unfortunately this change wasn't in nse_main.lua but rather
nse_main.cc

Your other option is to fix your script.db file by hand (just remove
the leading backslashes).
