I've seen this a couple of times, and each time the problem's arisen
because I've upgraded Nessus and the cached plugin descriptions somehow
no longer agreed with the newer version. Shutting down the daemon, removing
the directory ".desc" in the plugins directory, and restarting the daemon
solved the problem.

On the off-chance "-O6" corrupted the cached descriptions, try removing
them and seeing if the problem persists. It's a long-shot but...
