DNS enumeration in Armitage throwing a stack trace

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Using Hosts > DNS Enum in Armitage I get a stack trace.
The same module in the Metasploit console (no Armitage) works fine, which makes 
me believe it's an Armitage related issue.

What version of Metasploit are you using (type: svn info)? On which
operating system?
Svn r15017 updated 2012.03.23 on Mico$oft Windows 7.

Which database are you using?
Postgresql.

Would you be willing to try this same module in msfgui? I suspect it might be 
an RPC or MessagePack issue.

Got the same error in msfgui.

Now, if you can reproduce the problem in Metasploit Pro/Express/Community 
edition, then we can get Rapid7 to fix it :D

This looks like an issue with the win32-registry gem more than anything else, 
looking into it, but there is a good chance an update gem in next week's 
release will resolve it.

anyway you can copypaste your text into the bug directly, rather than just the 
screen? That way search engines can crawl your error message and help future 
generations of Windows rubyists.

Has this issue been resolved with the latest ship of MSF 4.3.0?

I'm running MSF 4.4.0 dev and I confirm that the issue is resolved.
