Unison rely on "ssh" to establish a connection with remote site. So it
doesn't handle at all any network error, since it look likes a
broken pipe when ssh fails...

Don't you think that nmap just crash "ssh" ? 

In this case, this bug should be reassigned to ssh.

Can you reproduce the same behavior with the same command ?
