I found the problem: The HEAD client doesn't set the following
SERVER_PREFS to their default values:

auto_enable_dependencies = yes
cgi_path = /cgi-bin:/scripts
port_range = default
continuous_scan = no
detached_scan = no
save_empty_sessions = no
save_session = no

An unset port_range leads to problems in the new nessus_tcp_scanner.

A quick grep over other parts of nessus shows that port_range really
never should be unset. Bad things will happen in the server.

For a quick solution I'll fix the client, but a better error
checking is really needed, or what do you think?
