I'm unable to reproduce this problem. I suspect your Nmap is
configured/compiled improperly. Usually when there are GC segfaults it
results from two different Lua installations being linked to (usually
dynamic and static linking). Although, I find this unlikely
considering where the fault occurred.

I saw from the output that you are using Gentoo. Are you using the
installation provided by Gentoo or did you compile Nmap yourself? If
you did it yourself, what options did you use for configure? Did you
install Lua yourself? Is there anything else peculiar about your
installation?
